| - I've been to this place a couple times, but the first time was for a comedy show that I decided to go to pretty much at the last minute and was late for, and a result I wasn't here very long and never got a good feel for the place. I came here again for a birthday, light rail pub crawl and I'm still not sure how I feel about the place.
I was here on a Friday, and it was empty. I'm not a "club" person, and I'm usually all for going to places where I can actually sit & have a conversation with the people I came with, but this place just seems like it's funner when there's people around (if that makes any sense). It sounds like this place has more going on, on Saturdays from the sounds of the reviews (I didn't see/hear a DJ when I was here), so maybe that's a better night to come.
I do like the bar area though, and there's a place with couches and skeleton that's fun to taken drunken pictures with. Our group was here for about an hour and we pretty much spent the whole time over in that area. The drinks are reasonably priced, and they do have drink specials on the weekends (I don't remember what they are though).
Overall, this place is just kind of a weird atmosphere for a hotel bar. I'd come back (maybe on a Saturday when there's more going on), but it would probably be part of a bar night on the light rail (that's why I came here this past time). I wouldn't come downtown just for this place though.
