8/10 Very good

It was great, although self check-in required assistance. Floors are slanted, elevator is old and slow, staff is polite. It's quirky and somewhat inconvenient, like being on vacation in a charming town without too many amenities. Fantastic location.

Hotel concept is cute. Good location. Loved the check in process. However, guy at front desk was rude and condescending when I was having difficulty with the code for the front door and COCKROACHES!!!

This is an adventure place with the best location!

This is a great spot and super fun stay! I enjoyed everything but the bed, but it was a cool place to lay my head down. Wish there was a ceiling fan or some way to move air, the windows did not open. And one of the blinds did not open and were always partially open. The bar below closes at 2am, bring ear plugs or skip this amazing art hotel if you are too sensitive. I can't wait to come back and stay in another cool room.

A New Hotel Experience

I had never checked in the way they had things set up so it was a little confusing and a bit frustrating when I had trouble with the code to open the door. I am partially to blame though because i didn't read their email with instructions like I should have. Other than that, our stay was fun. We enjoyed the unique experience of this hotel. There are no staff onsite, so be prepared, everything is self-serve.
Cool mural!

Room was clean. It was extremely loud every night outside into the early morning hours, daily. Rooms are hot even with the use of a fan.

Cool boutique art hotel!
Holly, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The whole aesthetic and idea behind the hotel is awesome, and very affordable which I think is a big deal. The art is super cool and at least in my room had humorous undertones. My only issue is the walls are super thin and not at all soundproof and the beds are poor quality.

Interesting art, horrible bed

My room decor was interesting, a bit quaint, and I enjoyed the wall painting. Everything was clean, temperature was fine, and it was pretty quiet. Check-in (via the app) after hours went smoothly. And when the elevator acted up, someone responded to my text very quickly. However, on the most important measure for a hotel room - the bed - this hotel fell far short. The mattress provided very little support and was uneven (clearly most people slept on the side that had a night stand). It wasn’t even a spring mattress, just a 6-inch or so foam mattress on a metal frame. Thankfully, I was only there one night. I won’t stay here again.
Julie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Small and uncomfortable. Great location.

Funky, old hotel in great location. No front desk personnel - entrance and room key all digital. We knew the room would be small but no lamps or reading lights - just an obnoxiously bright ceiling light. No air-conditioning - the room was HOT. No chairs or place to sit other than on the beds. And the TV didn't work - no internet connection. Overall the 2-night stay was passible but definitely not comfortable. Also, rooms on the Rush St. side are very loud - not recommended.

This hotel really ia dedicates to the art. Diverse original art makes every room different. Good location. Good price. My first stay at a no-front-desk hotel. It worked pretty well and help was available by phone. Poor choices on the TV.

For the price and location it was perfect for us. Walking distance to everything we wanted to see

2/10 Poor

I had a very disappointing stay. The hotel did not feel secure at all, the hallways and room were dirty, and the constant smell of weed made it uncomfortable. This is not the experience I expected.
Jemma, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Considering the cost/night, it’s not that worthy. Room was quite small with average cleaning and the shared bathroom not always clean. We paid 423€ for three nights - definitely not worthing cost-benefit. Positive note, customer service team was very nice and always available for support.
