Unique set up but loved it! Only real complaint was the sheets were pretty hot and not breathable so sleeping was a little hot otherwise a great stay. Perfect location for Third Ward, very walkable.

This was such a great stay! Really beautifully done. The nespresso and self serve breakfast options were a great touch and the kitchen was beautiful and spotlessly clean. Comfy bed, great shower. My only caveat is that the walls are very thin. Our neighbors were very respectful volume, but we could hear them speaking and getting ready in the morning before we were up. Wasn’t at all a dealbreaker, just something to be aware of!

Staff are available on site and through call/text but you can also go your whole stay without interacting with them if thats what you prefer. Shared kitchen/dining was nice and clean, easy access to building and room with a keycode so you don't have to worry about losing a room key. Very relaxing stay

It's a mostly self-service property, though friendly and helpful staff were there when we checked in. The rooms are beautiful, as was the shower and bathroom. A very comfortable place to stay!
