Yes room was clean and orderly with everything in place. Front desk and dining staff were professional and thoughtful. Music in restaurant was a bit high for volume, more relaxing type of music would be nice. Food was good and happy hour specials were nice. enjoyed our stay.

The Emily is a very nice hotel, but I was a little underwhelmed by it for some reason. Going into it, my impression was “new hotel with minimalist approach that has an artsy vibe.” We did find some art in one area by the elevator but I was expecting much more. We stayed in a King Deluxe and the room had everything we needed but did feel a little drab - maybe it’s the choice of paint color in the hallways and bathroom, maybe it was actually the minimalist approach? Something about it felt dark and flat. There is a steep step up to get into the shower that I think could be difficult and possibly dangerous for short people or someone with a disability. The bed was really comfortable, though, and the mini bar was stocked with a good variety if you’re willing to pay for it. We went to Fora for breakfast and my husband was really pleased with his meal, but, my meal - the breakfast sandwich, did not match the description in the menu and was extremely hot. I scalded my tongue on it. The staff at desk and restaurant were all very friendly and helpful, at all hours of the day/night. Definitely felt safe there and walked ALL over the neighborhood. Tons of restaurants and craft cocktails to choose from.
