Brand new Hyatt in a great location in south side works area. Walking distance to the best south side has to offer. Shopping, restaurants and nightlife all blocks or less away.
The hotel has a very modern feel. It has a great outside deck w comfortable furniture. View of the river in back of the hotel. The hotel staff was extremely friendly. This hotel was pet friendly, for a somewhat large fee, 75 dollars I think.... So not very accommodating actually unless 75 for a pet in a 100 a night hotel doesn't bother you.
Now for the rooms. They were average in size, and had the same modern feel. They had a nice little kitchen including dishwasher and dishes and things nice big flat screen.
The negatives were small yet a big enough deal for me to think twice in staying again. The rooms were pretty dirty for such a new hotel. The windows had dead bugs, crumbs in the couch. The worst part was the cupboards that contained dishes had a layer of dust and food crumbs all through them. The glasses were covered in finger prints and doubt they were washed. I threw a load of dishes in the washer, but the room didnt have detergent. So if a clean room is important to you, this may not be a good choice.
One really odd thing was the bathroom door. The bathroom has swing doors that have a large gap in the middle. The doors have not lock and you can plainly see right into and out of the bathroom with the horribly designed doors closed. I am not sure what they were thinking on this.. If you are staying with friends or care about privacy, good luck in this place.
So I guess other than cleanliness and the bathroom door issue it would be a great hotel. Those are some pretty large issues, but could be fixed.
Also one more thing.. There is a parking garage across the street that charged us 3 dollars on weekends a day. The hotel garage is 14 dollars and valet only. Seems unnecessary considering all the space in the area, parking is easy to find. I feel like the hotel was taking advantage of patrons a bit.
