I love this chain. They’re all super cool. Room was really great. Night staff was great, morning not so much. Hard area too with all the college students everywhere. But it was quiet.

Cute close and super noisy!!!!
Stayed for college move in. You can't beat the location. But the road nouse was terrible. Im a Hilton Honors members and honstly if i wasnt so tired from moving in i would changed hotels. You pay premium for the location but depending on whete your room is the noise will impact your nights sleep.

Loved the reception from Kenzie. Grouped out three rooms together without asking and loved being offered unlimited water as it was a brutally hot day.
The parking assistant (Ben) was so pleasant and personable and we enjoyed talking to him.
The barista in the am was engaging as well:)
Staff and comfort of the bed and sitting area made our visit amazing:)

Great service and atmosphere
Great - really enjoyed it. A great hotel with great service and fun atmosphere. The fitness room could use some upkeep, there was no recycling, and the valet parking was more than I wanted to pay considering the cost. However we would definitely stay here again. Fantastic location and boutique hotel feel with amenities. Nice personal touches. Comfortable beds and very unique. 9/10
