"This hotel had the exact vibrant and fun energy we were looking for. The trendy artwork, bold colors, and open layout created the perfect atmosphere to relax and hang out. We walked to near by Gelato shop and restaurants. The National African Museum was just 13mins driving distance and the Diner at Moxy was so good with awesome servers. I will choose a bigger room as the one I chose was just too small for me however, the room was super clean including the floor as I'd walked around in my white socks and they were still clean. Definitely returning."
