8.0 Very good
Liked: • restaurants and bars onsite. Excellent quality and variety. The lobby and rooftop Broken Shaker bar are wonderful spots. • Room design (Premium King): thoughtful interior design, stocked with good quality bathroom and shower products (Argan). Disliked: • Lack of coffee machine in the room. But the excellent coffee at Cafe Integral downstairs largely makes up for this. • Room cleanliness. Our room was functionally clean but lots of dust on the table, dresser, tv, and windowsill.

10.0 Wonderful
Only drawback was the $56 overnight parking fee. There are cheaper parking lots around the block, but if you don’t know they won’t tell you.

A
9.1 Wonderful
Pros:The location was AMAZING. I absolutely loved the commodities and the ambience. The staff was so helpful too and I appreciate helping me when I needed it.
Cons:The beds and the room. The bunk beds were soo small so it was hard to get comfy. I was on a small vacation so I didn't like the space. Since there hardly was any.

8.0 Very good
Cons:Breakfast was little Toast and a muffin No butter
A
2.0 Poor
Pros:The rooftop was beautiful
Cons:- staff could care less about service - rooms are soooooo tiny - you hear everything from slamming doors to talking in other rooms - it's a hostel as well with shared rooms on every floor - people can smoke inside the rooms so it smells - security is not there abs bums get into the hotel - elevators don't work - had to take the stairs almost every time - didn't feel safe in the neighborhood - save your money and do not stay here. I wish I didn't.

8.8 Very good
Pros:Everything was so new and clean, and nice. The hotel lobby bar and restaurant were beautiful. The staff were all extremely friendly. I loved the beds in the hostel style room I stayed in—would stay in them over sharing double beds with friends/family any day. Wish more hotels used this option.
Cons:Wish there were more smaller towels in the room for washing face, drying hands, to put on floor after shower, etc. Some facilities and amenities not open or fully functional yet (but should be soon), wish locks for hostel room lockers were provided, instead of charged for.
