Great place! We didn't get to spend much time with Michael, but he seems like a really nice and interesting person. The place is nice overall. Upsides: great host, clearly an art-oriented person (really entertaining to just look around), great location at awesome value, and great patio on the roof outside the loft. Downsides: we were here on a Saturday night in August -- there is a club downstairs and the music literally resonated from the walls until ~5am. We were a bit scared when we first understood the extent of the noise, but in the end it wasn't that bad. And Michael provided ear plugs which were extremely helpful.
