The hotel was conveniently located near multiple train lines and easy to reach from Penn Station, which was ideal since my partner and I were traveling from Philly. There was plenty to do nearby, and the hotel itself had a lively atmosphere with a couple of bars, a club, and a cafe and pool tables in the lobby. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and despite initial concerns about the lack of a traditional front desk, we were able to drop off our bags and later check-in with a real person, which was my preference. The room, however, was the biggest disappointment and the main reason for the lower rating. I splurged on a loft room with a “view” for our five-year anniversary, but were placed on the third floor overlooking condos and a parking lot. There was a large noticeable stain on the couch, and very little separation between the bathroom/washroom and the sleeping area. The mostly translucent door/divider left little to the imagination, where you could easily see the toilet and if someone was using it. It also seemed like our room was beneath an ice machine or service area. Throughout the night, there were constant shuffling sounds and loud noises that made it difficult to fall asleep and repeatedly woke me up. This wasn’t typical city noise which I'm otherwise used to. Given the higher price point and the occasion we were celebrating, our stay was a little disappointing

This hotel has tickets on itself like no where else I’ve ever stayed. The staff were too busy trying to look cool to provide any real customer service. Upon checking in we were just told our room number and handed a card, no details provided re check out time, any of the hotel facilities and certainly no info about the additional $150 ‘all access fee’ that we required to pay - for a three night stay! This was a little unexpected extra that we were hit with when we checked out and it wasn’t detailed anywhere on my booking confirmation. The room wasn’t very well sound proofed and we could hear the thud of the music from the bar all night - thank God for ear plugs. I wouldn’t stay here again and I wouldn’t recommend it either.
