I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a place more interesting and fun than the usual hotel.
Pros:

I liked the decor - eclectic art everywhere; placards that explained what some were about and the artists; the variety of bars; the youthfulness of staff; the beauty of the building; the bed.

Cons:

Lighting above the bathroom sink - very dim. Most of the room lights were dim, which was not a problem, but the dimness in the bathroom made for challenging primping.

All in all, I’d definitely book again. Quiet, charming atmosphere!
Pros:

Loved the location! The neighborhood has very interesting restaurants and shops. Easy walk to convention center. Great breakfast and coffee!

Cons:

Parking was a little confusing especially overnight. Staff was great in assisting the parking game. No coffee in room so you have to navigate to the lobby or restaurant.
