The room was fine and I like the concept with the shared space. The location was good, but the room was frigid and the walls are very thin.

Very clean room and property. This is a boutique hotel, we actually saw no staff during our stay and that was fine. Bed was super comfortable and plenty of options of food and drinks close. Loved the decor and convenience of checking in and out.

Had a great time

Lovely place. Walls are a little thin so we could hear everything and the rooms are a on the smaller side. But we had a good experience. There’s a cute little outdoor area too

Stayed from a Wednesday - Saturday. Felt like we had the place to ourselves the first couple nights so overall quiet and enjoyable stay. On Friday night there were definitely more guests occupying the hotel and the walls were pretty thin - needed a noise machine between the room next door and the street noise as Bridge St is pretty busy. Overall easy check in, comfortable and beautiful space, and an ideal location for our needs.

The room and common areas were beautiful- well thought out and nicely decorated. Everything was very clean. The only downsides were construction happening next door into the late evening and being able to hear neighboring rooms and toilets/showers etc. The surrounding area is nice, lively, and walkable.

Far exceeded expectations!

It was one of the nicest rooms I've ever stayed in, very quiet, private, clean. Highly recommended especially for the reasonable price in comparison to other hotel options in the downtown area.

No people. No front desk. No warmth but was clean.

No idea it was “self service” which I hate. I have been in the hospitality industry for 40 years because I live the personal touch. After driving 3.5 hours from Chicago, I needed to use the ladies room. Front door was locked. Called # on window and they said “ you have to fill out the form”. Some lady called me while I was driving referencing some form which I assumed I could fill out at front desk. There is no front desk and no people. I heard someone come home after me last night but never saw anyone. Totally weird. Not my type of vibe. Rate on line said $79 then $100 in fees was added on. Not good!
