Perfect location, nice people, skip breakfast--there are better options outside the hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was a low point, wife's salmon bagel was barely tosated and my home fries were just a large 'tater-tot'.

I'll go back to the beach next time I'm in the area.
Pros:

Not much. I slept well so it met the minimum requirements. The TV connected well to my iPhone via bluetooth.
Saw a nice sunrise from my room window. That was nice.

Cons:

Glass Light is a soulless warehouse for storing people at night. I got in late, about 10pm, and the doors were locked, no indication of how I should proceed.
I walked around back and followed a staff member entering through a back door. They didn't ask who I was or why I was carrying bags into the back entrance.
when I found my way to the registration desk the person there blithely told me they lock the doors at nine and I need a room card to get in. No curiosity about how I broke through this military strength security system. The decor is harsh post industrial dystopia. Only the bedding was soft.

Beautiful art, rooms, and great staff
Pros:

Beautiful property and staff who went above and beyond to make your stay great. Highly suggest the valet parking, as the location is on a busy city street.

Women's Conference Stay
Pros:

This place was better than expected. Better than the pictures. CLEAN, super bright hallways and decor. Staff was FANTASTIC and went, in my opinion, above and beyond. Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND and would stay again. Hailey at the front desk provided us with outstanding guest service and the manager on her shift (forgive me for not recalling your name) She was ALSO gave us phenomenal gest services as well. Very pleased with the friendly, kind staff on all the nights of our stay. Gooooood JOB!!!

Cons:

Nothing not to like. Would stay here always if needed. Great rooms and bright, modern, CHEERY decor!!
