This cosmopolitan hotel offers the seemingly requisite haute attitude to techies, hipsters and people who like to consider themselves part of the in-crowd, as well as anyone who fancies trendy urban digs. With floor-to-ceiling windows, the artsy, two-level lobby is called The Living Room and serves as overflow for the bar and restaurant, Earth & Ocean, in the evening. The hallways are so subtly lit that they are positively dark, but the rooms are bright and spacious. Standard rooms have king-sized beds with 250-thread-count sheets, a banquette nestled at the window, big bathrooms and CD players. DSL access is available for an additional charge. The honor bar/munchie basket includes Pez and wax lips. Pets are also allowed, but advanced notice is required. The location is prime for downtown shopping and walking to many major attractions. |
