We booked a night to celebrate our husbands birthdays. All four of us had a wonderful time. Short north has a lot to offer as far as night life and amazing food.
Pros:
- The beds at Jon’s place were phenomenal! So cozy and comfortable
- The place was absolutely stunning with charm and nice warming touches
- Cleanliness of the place was 5/5
- The shower beers were a nice touch (at additional cost) and our husbands loved this feature
- Bathrooms and showers are spacious and the sky lights provide a charming feel to the place
Cons:
- We had to park a mile away. Parking is “fend for yourself.” I did not read enough into the parking policy. The bartenders told us the “safest” place to park was about a mile away and we paid $31 for each car just go park for the night (we drove 2 cars). Parking was slim to none close by. A suggestion would allow guests to park in the back lot where employees park, especially for the price guests are paying per night. This would not be ideal for older folks, those with disabilities or those with kids.
- The main feature we were looking forward to was the brew tap in the room and we were informed after we checked in that the tap was broken in our room. The record player was also not working properly.
- This spot is amazing for night life, but I underestimated how noisy it could get late at night.
- The fire alarms were all low on batteries and ours blinked and alerted “LOW BATTERY” very loudly every 5 minutes all night long. This was after the pub closed so we couldn’t even ask for assistance.
