Overall the property was good. Hayden the bartender at Siren went above and beyond. Was unable to do self check due to the iPad not being logged in.

Front desk “thought we weren’t here” and decided to come in our room and supposedly look for a charger a previous guest left in the room. Totally not cool. We have been checked in for 22 hours and easy for OUR stuff to come up missing. We even had our do not disturb tag on the door. Also, you hear all the hallway noise from inside your room. Decently nice looking place but not if you want PEACE and QUIET.
