Best Tree House Ever!

We had an incredibly pleasant stay. The staff was welcoming and friendly, from the vale, to the front desk, to the hostess, to the waite staff and bartenders. The beds were so comfortable and the rooms were very clean. The theme and design of the hotel were ingenious! The location was perfect for any place you wanted to go to downtown. We did not get to go to the roof top restaurant because they were booked. We highly recommend a reservation, which we will do next time. Anniversary night here we come!

1. Attractive, striking design all over the hotel --lobby, restaurant, guest rooms. Striking. 2. It's been open ca. 4 months; still some problems. The power-shades on the windows don't work. A lamp kept flashing on and off. There's zero instruction in the room for using various gadgets; there's a remote control unit that shows numbers from 1 to 15; no indication what this is for, or what the numbers mean. 3. The room is dark, even with the (dim) lights all on. 4. We reserved a mountain-view room. The front desk announced that we got an "upgrade" --to a room with a view of the parking lot.

Property has been rushed out together no amenities, no room service, no access to ice machines and no after hour food options. Rooms and floors all smell Smokey due to restaurant on site

Perfect for Couples

Just amazing architecture. Beautiful. Rooms are very quiet! We didn't hear anyone else. Beds and pillows were so comfortable. There is not a desk in the room we stayed in. But we were not there for work. The second floor does have conference amenities, chill out space, tables and chairs. Coffee from the lobby was spot on. I can't say enough good things about this place.

Not Great.

Lots of kinks to work out at this new place. Also bad neighborhood with nothing to do unless Uber. Do not walk around not safe. Servers and managers need massive training. So many other way better options to stay. Room was uncomfortable SMALL. TINY. Do yourself a favor and skip this place.

We loved the design and view from the Populus. Front desk staff and valets were really nice and helpful. My husband hit his head on a door and they got him ice, checked on him later, etc. They gave us 2 coins for free cocktails even but our waiter upstairs took them but then charged us for the cocktails (that was the only thing we didn't like). We would stay again.
