Overnight adventure
Pros:

This hotel is so unique. Morning coffee was delicious. Building is beautiful inside and out.

Cons:

Parking. You have to pay to park until 6pm then either leave by 8am or pay to park until checkout. Staying more than overnight would impact the value of the room rates.

Fine
Pros:

Cool restaurants and bars and vibe

Cons:

No parking, messaged we could check in early and then sat around and waited for hours. No fridge, small rooms, strict. Over hyped.

Loved our time. Have already recommended to family
Pros:

Loved all there was to explore on the property. Visited all the restaurants and bars. Food was great, drinks were excellent.

Cons:

I'm 59 and the bed was not comfortable. I would love to come back, but not sure my back will let me. Also parking was a challenge.

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.
