    A fun and quirky place to stay near great restaurants, bars and Powell’s Bookstore. The large, hot soaking tub is amazing. I would definitely stay here again!

    In a ddition to this it was not plainly advertised that you use shared bathrooms! Theres 2 toilets for each floor and my floor (3rd) has like 15 rooms. So 2 toilets and 2 showers for up to 30 people. Other than that...The hotel is GORGEOUS!!! Theyve capture the charm of the era it was built in (1911) and then updated it in a quirky fun way. I might stay here again but not with a pickup and realize that most garages close areoun 11pm or midnight, So if you go out and want to stay out late. Leave the car and take an uber. And bring a piss bottle if you dont want to stumble down the hall in the middle of the night to pee.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Front desk staff was generally friendly and welcoming but a few weren’t welcoming or possibly they were too shy to acknowledge guests.

    The property was very unique and well laid out. Nice amenities and charm. Would’ve been nice to have your own bathroom in the room, but wound up not being an issue

    I had to come home.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    What an amazing, unforgettable hotel. I stayed 4 nights and loved every moment, from the boho Silversun Pickups room to the basement bar and gorgeous restaurant and soaking pool. The Crystal ballroom was only one block away. I can't wait to go back! I had to come home.
