Went to concert at vibrant music hall, this hotel is very close, could walk there. The bed in rm 201 could use some help, a little soft and lower in the middle, so 2 people roll to center. Dining options nearby.

I stayed here for a conference being held at another hotel, and choosing this location was absolutely the right move. It was only about 8 minutes away and saved me over $100 compared to the conference hotel — and honestly, I think I got the better experience. The vibe of the place is fun and modern. I loved the booth-style seating in the room, and the wallpaper was unusual in the best way — it fit the theme perfectly. Everything was super clean, easy to navigate, and felt fresh. I didn’t try the food, but I did stop by the bar and the service there was great. Check‑in was quick and smooth. The outdoor area had a really cool setup, and while I didn’t use the pool, it looked very inviting. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations. I’d absolutely stay here again and will be recommending it to others.
