This is a very unique and cool place to stay! They literally thought of everything! I have never stayed in a hotel quite like this one and have already recommended it to friends and family. The attached brewery/restaurant was very cool as well and the food was delicious! Where else can you stay that gives you a free beer when you check in? It was an awesome experience and I will definately stay here again if I am ever in the area! :)

The hotel and brewery were awesome. We had a great time there with some friends. And we got to pet some puppies. The only downfall was the weather wasn't good so we weren't able to get outside and enjoy it, that's why I gave the 3 star rating around the property. It looked like there were lots of places to hang out around the property but we were not able to enjoy them.

Fun hotel with uniqueness. Check in was fast and easy. The first time I ever got a “check in beer”! Room was great ( except the neon light over the bed that couldn’t be switched off). Walking to the room smelled great overlooking the Sour Room. Spent some time at the lobby bar after restaurant closed. Friendly staff and fun crowd. Morning breakfast was good. Small selection, but good quality. We look forward to returning in the future!

Staff was very friendly, but expected to do the work of two people. Check in took quite a long time because only one person was working the front desk and was having to answer phones and check people in. The room was nice, but the shower really needed some attention.
