Cool vibes, friendly staff, very modern, great location. The room was small and kind of felt like an IKEA closet, but the coolest IKEA closet. It worked well for what we needed and we would likely return :)

The room was clean and the added features with the iPad was plus. I do caution guest that the rooms are small and suitable for 2 people. However the most disappointing thing was the parking. The hotel does not offer parking and the recommended garage was $46 a night and closed at 10pm. So if you do not want to risk parking on side of the road or getting towed the next available/closest garage was $70 a night.

The first room they put us in we had a decent view, but the room stunk like cigarettes and cheap cologne to the point we had to request to be moved. They moved us into a room facing a white brick wall so, that kind of sucked. But I guess I'd rather stare at a wall than be stuck in cigarette smell. The pillows/bed weren't very comfortable, but I will say the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The lobby staff definitely redeemed the hotel experience x10, they were amazing.
