Pros: Cool new modern property within walking distance to new music hall. Spacious rooms with big TV’s, good staff. Con: Reserved a room 3 weeks in advance with a King bed but got changed to a double bed room without notice, and said they were really busy? Not cool.

This hotel isn’t for the faint of heart. While it is gorgeous, and front desk staff were excellent, it’s the rooms. If you’re staying with a friend or acquaintance you’re about to know them real well. The toilet area has the sliding barn doors with no lock and won’t stay closed. I don’t know who decided putting those in hotels was great but it’s not. Then the sink and shower area are wide open with no way to block them off and on the wall across from them is a gigantic mirror so whomever is sitting on the other side can see whatever you’re doing and whatever state of undress you’re in. Zero privacy. We stayed as a family and while the beds were comfy, our kids didn’t need to be seeing any of that and even they were uncomfortable. If no privacy screen can be put up, at the very least that mirror needs to go! There’s also no microwave if you’re looking for one. There is a charge for breakfast (which we did know about) but for the price of the room, and if the hotel has breakfast options, it should always be included.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The bathroom shower door was not hung correctly and would get caught on the floor, making it hard to open and close. It was glass, so concerned about it breaking every time I opened and closed. Also, there was no bathroom privacy as there was no door on the bathroom, completely open. I was staying in a double queen room and was traveling with people I would like to have had privacy from while in the bathroom. Poor hotel room design and planning. If it was a room designed for a single person, then it would have made sense.
