How is the perfect room for a family with kids and their friends. Two sets of bunk beds with curtains on the beds and one big bed is awesome. Lockers under the beds for each person is convenient. Rooftop bar is closed for the season but that’s alright because there’s one downstairs that’s always hoppin. CJ at the front has a great personality and is the perfect person for a customer facing job. The location is super walkable to MODA and Veterans. Definitely would stay again.

Loved the stay; we booked a family room. It was great to have bunks for our kids in room, instead of having to purchase multiple rooms. The atmosphere in the hotel had such a fun vibe and was a comfortable space. We weren't huge fans that the only parking garage was a 15 min walk from the hotel, across the bridge, and street parking was not easy to find. Other than the parking and the slightly gross side streets (with lots of homeless or way to high individuals) we loved our stay.

We stayed in the queen suite. Had two bunk beds and the queen. Very nice for families traveling with kids.

The entire hotel was unique, with our room sleeping our 6 member family in 2 bunks and one queen bed. The staff was all amazingly helpful when we had any needs. The room was lovely with interesting decor and no tv which we loved as we were easily able to turn off. Would have liked breakfast, but the coffee was good that was offered. Only issue wasn't really controlled - loud bus outside our window. Otherwise loved all of it.

We have stayed here twice now for comic con. I always get the rooms that have bunk beds and a queen. The place is nice but definitely caters to the party scene and adults. If you have a family say with three kids it's not the best choice of places to stay. I also wish they had a microwave in the room as well as the mini fridge. And there is no hotel parking, end up paying another to park your vehicle.
