This is a very Ikea-type place, but in the best possible way.\n\nFirst off, no floral patterns or nasty ruffled bed covers anywhere!  The property opened in early 2009 so everything is new, clean, and does not have any peculiar smells like most hotels do.  The rooms are spacious with comfy beds, flat screen TVs and glass shower stalls. The toiletries are from the same Bliss collection as you would find at higher priced parent chain. \n\nAnother shocker -- the bottle of water in the room is complimentary!!!  It's the small things that count; I am unfortunately used for that little bottle to be $5.  Also, free wired and wireless internet throughout the property, a 24/7 gym, a (tiny) pool, a bar, and a little snack area. Minimalistic modern design, funky music, and trippy floor panels in the elevators. The hotel is located right in the Epicenter so you're within crawling distance of all the hopping clubs and restaurants as well as the office buildings where you need to drag your sorry a$$ in the morning. \n\nFinally, the nightly rate is about $40-$50 cheaper than any other property in the surrounding few blocks.\n\nThe reason I took off one star is the loud beast of an A/C system in the room that is hard to tame (there's digital control for the unit but it's pretty finicky).  But a little birdy told me that they're going to replace all air conditioning units due to high number of complains.\n\nBottom line: this girl will be back -- I stayed in other hotels in the area and this one, though not perfect, is the best for my taste and a bargain too!
