I loved and hated my stay here. I loved it because it was centrally located in a super cool neighborhood, all the staff were friendly and the rooftop bar was great. The hotel is super hip and has lots of quirky attributions, like funky art and some really fab small touches, like two bottles of champagne and a bag of popcorn upon entry into your room. Loved that.
So then we come to the room. The hate. Really the hate was the bathroom/shower situation. If you are not comfortable doing your biznas in front of others... With the door open, don't stay here. I repeat, DO NOT STAY HERE. I am one of those peeps that needs my privacy. I don't fault you if you let it all out in front of your loved ones. I admire your confidence.
However, I like a wall and closed door when I have my bathroom time. Get my point? The room is small to begin with, which is not a surprise for a boutique hotel, and not really an issue. The real issue is the bathroom and shower are all glass, with the SLIGHTEST frost over a portion of the glass. But you can see EVERYTHING even with the frost... And hear EVERYTHING. Again, if that bothers you, this hotel is not for you.
Also, we stayed on floor 2 of the 3 floors of this hotel and this is NOT a quiet hotel once nightfall hits. If you like to party and/or stay up late night and hear pulsating music... You'll be good to go. If your head hits the pillow by 10ish and you're a light sleeper, forget going to bed. The sweet sounds of Pitbull will not lull you to sleep.
If I was staying alone I'd absolutely stay here again. If I was coming with a friend/family member, no way. I feel bad because I really did like the hotel other than that fact. Which in my world, is a big issue. My bathroom door is always closed. Sorry folks.
