The hotel is very unique but definitely not worth $250/night: the bed was incredibly hard (my fiancé and I didn’t sleep well and woke up each morning with stiff backs) and the pillows were so soft they didn’t offer any support (we woke up with stiff necks).
While the place was clean, the communal kitchen needed needed quite a bit of restocking—from coffee pods, tea bags and oatmeal to cereal spoons, tea cups and coffee cups (we had to wait until other guests finished their coffees so we could wash out their cups and make coffee for ourselves).

Great place to stay and very easy self check-in. My only complaint is the bathroom door has a large gap in it so there isn’t enough privacy while going to the bathroom.

I like this place as an option to a hotel. Great location

Perfect for what I needed
Room and bed were great. The vanity light in the bathroom was pretty sad and dim. I couldn’t do my makeup in there. That’s my only improvement suggestion

Loved this place! Only stayed one night but it was fantastic! The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and I am picky when it comes to this due to having a bad back. Loved the contactless check-in and check-out also. The only thing that was not liked was the bathroom door. It is a sliding barn door and when the door was closed there was about a half inch to and inch gap. The entire bathroom was visible through the gap which could be seen through the reflection of the wall mirror located in the room. The hotel was extremely clean and in a safe area that was in walking distance to shopping, food and nightlife. Would definitely stay there again!!!

I am not crazy about not having any staff, at all. Seems big brother-ish, as does the sign on the board that “we are watching you.” I gave high marks on the cool building, although it was hard to regulate the water temp in 6. Your guests were all very nice, but I have to say there must be a middle ground here that you could find if you tried. Other hotels, hostels manage to do that. Why not Kinn?

Great place-loved the common kitchen for coffee-Nespresso is a nice touch! Comfy beds, great restaurant on site and many within walking distance.

This is one of the few short term/hotel style rental properties here in Bayview. It’s great to be so close to everything while still having a quiet night to sleep.

Our room was great. But there is no elevator and lots of steps. It was difficult carrying luggage up all the steps.

Great location, free parking, and lots of great places to eat nearby including in the same building. Very clean and quiet room with soaring ceilings. Would definitely stay again.

The common area was so nice to hangout and nice place for an early morning coffee. Only having 8 unit was so unique, less traffic in the hallway and the neighborhood has so much you can walk to. My husband and I will be back.
