The property manager was cool but the room was a little dirty

Great property. Rooms are very differnt than any traditional hotel but offer some interesting and fun options. My favorite features are the lofted bedrooms and large windows letting in tons of light and offering sweet views of the city. Upper floors can even see the bay in the distance. Clean, modern, and contactless, ideal for any younger couple or family.

The apartment is small. The bed is in a sleeping loft created in the original apartment. As such, the loft has a low ceiling- I could touch the ceiling while lying flat on the bed. The stairs to the loft are steep. All was clean and worked great. The area is lively, with restaurants and bars. It seemed very safe and friendly.

Great place to stay!

Convenient, but very informal The place is ok. The neighborhood feels a little sketchy at night, but we had no issues. The whole place feels a little DIY, so definitely not fancy, but functional. The beds were comfortable, but the ladders up to the lofts were steep and one had only a single rail. Once you're up there, it's very short, so you need to be ok with getting around on hands and knees. The bathroom is fine, but the door didn't have a latch of any sort. We used the one table to hold our suitcases, since there's no way we were taking them up the ladders. So the main room was for dressing and such. All fine for a family weekend, but you have to be ok with basically no privacy. One concern was that the smoke detector was missing; just wires dangling from the ceiling. All in all, it was fine, and very conveniently located. But definitely not a place you want to hang out.

I was seriously disappointed The lobby was nice and it felt like I made the correct choice. Until I entered the room. The room looked nothing like the pictures I saw. It was super tiny. It didn't even look like it was finished. Lots of raw wood construction with no paint. There were literal ladders you had to climb to get up to the sleeping areas. The sleeping areas that only had about three and a half feet of ceiling space. Very claustrophobic. I would have been better off booking a hostel. Not happy with the experience. I won't be back.
