Very vibrant and modern hotel with a playful vibe. They even had a foosball table and Ms Pac-Man games in the common areas. We also stayed in the bunk room, which has comfortable bunk beds. The outdoor deck was a hit. Food in the restaurant is decent. We’ll definitely be back!

The Moxy is a really cool property. My teenagers loved it. Lots of opportunities for photos for social media. Checking in at the bar was neat and the welcome drinks are a nice touch. We enjoyed the great service and the live band. Parking is a nightmare with a truck. The washrooms do not offer privacy. Any sound amplifies x 100. Make sure you are staying with someone you are very comfortable with. Great location. Welcoming to all ages.

The room we had was set up really wierd. Big open area when you walk in the room with nothing there. Did not like the hooks by the tv to hang things. Thought that was a dumb idea Bathroom was nice and big but overall, not a lot of room in the room itself. Desk area was a flip-down table which left almost no room for a laptop. Not a lot of space in this room

I will not be staying here again. The bed and pillows were the most uncomfortable I have ever experienced. I would have slept better in my car. The fan/AC was extremely loud and cycled on and off every few minutes, making it impossible to rest. The bed was advertised as a queen but was only a double. While the room was stylish, it was extremely impractical. There was no closet, no dresser, no desk, no chair. Only a small nightstand barely large enough for the phone. Storage was limited to a few hooks on the wall and above the TV, which is not suitable for travelers. The staff were friendly and the location is convenient, but the discomfort of the room outweighed everything else. Thankfully, we only booked one night. I have never left a negative review before, but I feel compelled to warn others. If you value comfort, this is not the place for you.
