Really torn between 2 and 3 stars here. It's not a bad hotel.
Zero-1 is a good deal if you like a hip/modern/industrial aesthetic, don't mind dark walls and aren't arriving by car.
the good:
The price is great. I used a groupon deal and it was a fantastic price on an enormous suite-type room. open-plan living room/wet-bar/kitchenette. nice view, an extra room with a pull-out couch.
I really liked the bathroom and the large picture window in the main room.
it was pretty hip.
the lobby was gorgeous, staff competent and kind. good service.
free coffee and tea in the lobby was nice.
great free wifi
room was clean and comfortable
the bad:
decor overall was really off-base. I laughed at the other reviewer's description of "doomed nightclub" I can really see what she means.
dark walls everywhere. the layout was a little strange. I can see what they're going for- a trendy place, modern. they just didn't pull it off.
the finishing touches just weren't there. I didn't want to spend time in the room. It's also not my taste, so maybe others would enjoy it more.
their parking situation is not good. there's nowhere to pull your car in when you arrive so their valet service was confusing when we arrived. Valet service was a bad point again when we were leaving we had to wait for a long time.
Long time = well over 20 minutes. not unforgivable and we had free coffees from the lobby to sip on. Seemed long because we were trying to get on the road home and no one could tell us whether the car was actually coming.
