Would not suggest to a friend
Pros:

Location wasnt bad, terrible parking, bad rooms, no tub, higher price for what you get, breakfast was bad. Seemed more geared towards young party folk then adults. Wouldn't stay again but would recommend to someone looking for an expensive hostel type experience, room felt like a closet.

Cons:

We really didnt like anything except the location

Fun! Stylish! Easy to locate! Gummy worms!!!
Pros:

Delightful and fun decorations, easily accessible parking, cleverly furnished room, super-sweet staff.

Cons:

The HVAC in my room was a bit loud and would turn off & on often. Ended up needing to shut off the temperature control. Other than that … nothing, it was a really charming place.

Overall a very positive experience, and I would definitely stay again.
Pros:

The lobby was a fun place to hang out with lots of seating, live music in the evening and games. The "retro-modern" decor was really interesting. The coin for a free welcome drink was a nice surprise. Really nice showers.

Cons:

The pillows were not super comfortable.

great bar , bad sleep/service
Pros:

we liked the private parking, the bar was very comfortable bd staff was courteous, food was ok.

Cons:

so the room were not adequate, some example, no closet no dressers no counter, everything felt very cold and uninviting, when requested for an iron i was told by front desk employee to go and look for myself on every floor to find it, which is unacceptable at the price you charge to have no service. room heating supply was very loud and could not sleep.
