Fabulous family visit
The staff was friendly and accommodating. I had an electric scooter and the front desk clerk offered to give me a slightly larger room so it would fit comfortably. My whole family met at the rooftop bar for a little celebration and the staff provided us with a candle, which was lovely. When my son and his fiance stayed in my room for a few hours while sick, I asked the staff to change the linens and disinfect the room once they left, and it was not a problem. My one and only issue was that I did not know how to operate the shower. I got scalded and frozen repeatedly while attempting to adjust the dials. I would highly suggest having some written instructions somewhere other than "in the app", which I never saw or knew was necessary.

Hipster and cute
Room/building was nice (my 29y.o) daughter said ‘very hipster’. Shower was fancy but hard to operate, even after reading the instructions (which were ridiculous and weren’t correct to make it operate) I had a tepid shower with my feet in water up to my ankles!! Lol.
Would have loved to explore hotel a bit but time didn’t allow. Neighborhood looked nice—cute tavern and burger place across the street.
I booked a Handicapped Accessible room (I don't need it but the rate was better) but there was a bathtub in the room not a wheelchair accessible shower, so beware about this if you actually need wheelchair accessibility for showering.
