The neighborhood, interior design, ambiance, the bar etc were all top notch. Street parking was the only inconvenience. However, there are a few public parking lots nearby that cost a fortune lol. But overall, I am pleased with my experience. I will be returning in the near future for sure.

interesting

It's an interesting property. The decor is lively and unique. Some amenities are missing: no room safe, only way to get ice, that we could find was to go down to the bar. There doesn't seem to be any way to contact the front desk without going down there. But, almost a ll the staff were genuinely helpful, polite & knowledgeable. They went out of their way to be accommodating.

The thermometer in my room was terrible. My room was so hot that I couldn’t sleep. I called the front desk and they told me to call back in the morning. Terrible service. By the morning, I would have checked out and it wouldn’t have made a difference.

A Hotel with Personality

If you like a hotel that has a clear aesthetic that it commits to, friendly staff, and a great old-school bar, you will love this place. The decor has a really fun, kitschy-but-elegant midcentury aesthetic with a Greek theme, and the onsite bar has excellent martinis and charcuterie. All the staff were very friendly as well
