| - I've only been here once. Yeah, I told someone that and they looked at me like I was lying. Seriously, only once.
I ended up here after a mix-up at Cream (F.Y.I. I hate Cream), by mix-up I mean giving my friend's table away even though she was buying four bottles. Anyway, Axis was more than willing to giver her what she wanted.
I must say that I really did enjoy myself, but I wouldn't go back if I wasn't VIP. I need a place to sit and hang out; there didn't seem to be a spot for that downstairs.
Later in the night, I wondered around a bit looking for the restroom. There was this little section I just assumed I could go into and the bouncer stopped me dead in my tracks because I didn't have a wristband. I turned away slightly deflated when the man behind me asked where I was going. I pointed to my wrist and said, "I guess you need a wristband." He smiled and said, "no you don't." He led me up to the bouncer and told him, "she's with me." And they say chivalry is dead.
Anyway, the bathroom situation upstairs is a real joke. It's hot, unisex and there were only two. TWO! The walls are frosty so if you put your hand on the glass the people on the other side can see the shadowy silhouette. It reminded me of that scene in Titanic where Kate and Leo fog up the back of a car with their love making and leave just a hand print behind... probably because I reenacted it, without the sex and just the cheesy hand on the window.
I wandered around some more and decided it was way more fun upstairs. Getting a table upstairs with a group of friends is the way to go. You can lounge, drink, have conversation, and make little trips downstairs for dancing rather than actually being stuck down there. Honestly, if it were not for the refuge of our VIP table I would've bailed long before 2am.
In conclusion, 4 star fun with friends upstairs and 2 stars worth of fun downstairs if you're not actively dancing... so lets call it a 3.
