Great experience, and I would definitely stay there again in the future.
Pros:

The sheets, towels, and robes were spotless. It was the cleanest place Ive ever stayed in. The treats and wine in the room were a nice special touch. Also it was so convenient to have an ice maker and water machine right down the hall.

It was a unique experience.
Pros:

Gorgeous, unique facility.

Cons:

The neighborhood is just ok, like many hotel neighborhoods. It is louder than your typical hotel but they provide a sound machine and ear plugs and that did the job perfectly. There were high stained glass windows in our room which were pretty during the day but still let quite a bit of light from the hallway in even with the curtains closed. The curtains are a tad too short. I hung my jacket in front of the window.

Pros:

Location was great. I liked that pretty much everything was automated so I didn't have to worry about whether someone would be there when I arrived in the evening to check me in or be there early in the morning to let me check out. I didn't meet anyone in person, but the staff did respond pretty quickly via email when I needed help or had questions so that was great.

Cons:

The skylight that I paid extra for was basically just a view of the underside of the roof. You couldn't actually see the sky. :(

Believe all the good reviews! Would stay here again.
Pros:

King deluxe room had a real door on the bathroom, not a sliding barn door. Room was cute and cozy, and came with a Dyson fan, coffee maker, snacks/water, and a white noise machine. Lighting was nice and adjustable. Bed and pillows were comfy. Walls were thick.

Cons:

The church pew as a head board is cute, but tends to create a gap.

Adventurous and cozy
Pros:

It’s close enough to the action that seeing everything was a breeze, but far enough away that I didn’t hear any noise. It’s in a lovely, quiet neighbourhood with a couple of great cafes and bars nearby.

Cons:

The cold water tap in the room’s bathroom sink didn’t really work. That’s the only complaint I have.

Great stay at a well-kept place
Pros:

The room was surprisingly big and very comfortable. The bathooms were nice and the system of getting in/ out was easy to follow. The whole hotel was set up very nicely in the shared common areas and everything was super clean.

Cons:

The sound seemed to travel in the hotel. I couldn't always hear other guests but every now and then you would hear coughing or a TV. It wasnt super distracting but definitely there.
