Check in and out was very simple and straightforward. The loft was unique and in a superb location. Of note, the stairs to get up to the loft are narrow and on the steeper side so may not be suitable for all people. Everything is in close proximity - groceries, restaurants, coffee shops. Close proximity to streetcar and buses. The loft is well equipped, clean and very comfortable. The bed and pillows were super comfortable! The only downside for us was the brightness from the outside; even though we had all the curtains closed at night, it was still quite light in the loft and really bright in the morning - a problem for us, as we like to sleep in on our vacation. Other than that, the loft was perfect!
