Pros:

This is the smallest hotel room we’ve ever stayed in. Just enough room for the bed and dresser. Like a dorm room but with a tiny bathroom attached. The ceilings are low as well as small hallways. Could actually hear people walking on upstairs hallway (never hear that in normal hotels). We could hear people talking in adjacent rooms. We checked out after our first night and they charged us for the second night anyway. Don’t be fooled by the pictures online of the rooms.

Pros:

The room was okay. It smelled musty initially and seemed to taper off. The toilet was plugged up and we were never able to flush it without it almost overflowing.

Swanky and comfy!
Pros:

Adorable, clean, swanky hotel! Has a very new and fun vibe. The staff was friendly and accessible. I loved the room--everything felt new and well-kept. Room was on the smaller side but I appreciated that so as to not waste space. Nice exercise room with a few cardio machines and some weights. Good breakfast options (including coffee). Great location--tucked away from the road but near a lot of food and experiences. The walls are thinner so know that you shouldn't be too loud, but I didn't have any trouble with the noise, even on the football game weekend! I will definitely be visiting again, thank you.

Clean, Good Value, Nice Staff
Pros:

Overall. The Block is a good value for the money. Room was spacious enough and, more importantly, was clean and comfortable.

This is a minimalistic hotel so don’t expect extras and even has some standards removed.

There is a desk area and chair. No other chairs. The window has a nice large shelf which can hold your luggage. There is no closet but they have a rack in the room with hangars. No iron and ironing board. They do have basic toiletries and a hair dryer.

My wife and I found the bed comfortable and nice to have a king size.

The staff was friendly and attentive. Really nice check-in and additional help.

Only two things that were a little off…

1 - The room window had a blackout curtain but it did not fully cover the window so light would come around the edges. My wife is a light sleeper so this was a challenge.

2 - The towels had a strong bleach smell but at least that means you know they are really washing them.

We travel to the region several times per year and are always looking for a better place to stay. The Block is high on our list — with the only real concern being the light around the window.

As a bonus, at least for us, is the Starbucks right in front of the Block so I could walk over for coffee.

Don’t be fooled
Pros:

I hate to give this place a bad review, but it was grimy. The lobby is so nice, and I was really excited about our stay until we got upstairs to our room. Carpet was gross, walls were missing paint and water spots had been obviously painted over. It smelled musty and stale. The towels were soft, but everything else in the bathroom was old and outdated. I won’t be staying here again.

Pros:

I got in kind of late and I received a text message with my door code and the room number. That was very convenient. The front desk was very helpful as well. Even with the text message I went ahead and checked it since it was my first time staying. All the staff were super friendly and sincere about my stay and satisfaction. The room was sparkling clean with the whitest whites you've ever seen . I wish I knew their secret to keeping towels and sheets so white. Anyways I loved the Block, and if there was one piece of constructive criticism it would be better signage out front , however the GPS took us to the front door. Thanks to Block for outdoing themselves. I will be back
