Interesting Renovation, Small Rooms
The room was very small, though well-appointed. Not much space to navigate around the bed. Shower stall was very small. Just enough space to turn around. TV service did not work despite a call to the front desk to send up a maintenance worker. If you stay here, ask for a room on the front side of the building. Back side is next to active railroad tracks. We stayed one night; suspect a longer stay may be a bit challenging, especially if you want to relax in your room.

I arrived at night and it was difficult to figure out where to go. I valet parked at a whopping $26 rather than walk in the dark alone from parking area. Room was beautiful, very spacious and very comfortable. Hotel is not downtown but they only serve breakfast at the weekend, only have a coffee stand available during the week. We ate dinner at the restaurant on site Osteria Olio which was top class, definitely recommend. Could do with a few umbrellas so people can use the beautiful outdoor sitting area. Overall would recommend.

This property is beautiful, but clearly a case of form over function. The design is excellent, but awkward. There is no door to the bathroom and really no partition at all. There is a sheer curtain that pulls across. Really useless. So staying with a family is just out of the question. Sooooo awkward with a teenage girl and her parents! What is the point of an open concept bathroom here? There is none. It is so loud if someone used the bathroom at night and just a silly choice. Unless they rectify the bathroom situation, we will not be staying there again. The refrigerator is in the closet and the bar is too short for a dress and would rub against any food on top of the refrigerator. Again, just silly and impractical. Also the curtains do not close all the way! These issues are so easy to fix so maybe the hotel will realize that these quirks make the room uncomfortable. That said, the restaurant is excellent! Everything was very good. We are from New York City so we are familiar with good food and this was very nice.

The renovation of this former denim factory is beautiful and architecturally fascinating. However, the actual rooms were designed for a magazine spread, and not for actual people to stay in - electrical outlets mysteriously placed (hidden) and lack of privacy in bathroom area. The staff is friendly, enthusiastic and incredibly helpful. Five stars for Hailey and Caitlin at the front desk and the Manager whose name I did not get. Our server Marina in the restaurant was top-notch. Now to the criticisms - the hotel has only one elevator that operates at glacial speed. And there are no ice machines on any floor. A trip downstairs to the bar (taking your ice bucket) is the only way to get ice for the room. Puzzling and inconvenient. Valet parking is expensive ($25/day) and required.
