| - As I work remotely from home, there's a blurred line even between staycation and offsite working. So when I first heard about Oasis at Gold Spike, I was like, sure, why not?
OGS is the first hotel business acquired and operated by the Downtown Project. And like anything from DTP, concept was great but the execution was poor.
Even though we stayed in a premier room, there was no desk to put a laptop - I mean, seriously? No business friendly at all. Having a free wifi was almost pointless. I had to resort to the bar area which had nice couches but it got loud there in the evening.
Plus, the bed... the mattress too thick that I had to literally "jump" to sit on it. Totally unpleasant... Interior was brand new and clean as the property was just renovated, but the overall experience here was bad.
I was kinda amazed by the insensibility of the designer / architect, you can miss a thing or two, but this many? I wouldn't be surprised if the building didn't meet the basic construction code.
