The hotel was really cute. The room carpet had not been vacuumed. Major crumbs on the floor. Shower pressure was weak. Safe did not work. At check in the staff was unfriendly. Could care less we were customers.

The front desk staff was lovely as well as the staff in the lodge room. We needed to borrow a blanket and pillow for orientation and that was provided without as issue. The location is great - walkable to everything on campus and Five Points. We will be back in August and in the future.

As an artist myself, I found the hotel beautifully and creatively presented. There was something delightful everywhere one looked. There was, however, no sacrifice of comfort for style. The important elements were all good except for not having a coffee maker in the room. We were very comfortable but craving caffein.
