Staff was really really friendly and helpful. The hotel is LOUD at bar time. Everyone coming back to their rooms made a lot of noise and we could hear it. The room-to-room sound proofing is good, but room-to-hall isolation is not good. Some guy was on his phone at 3am down the hall and I could easily hear everything he was saying. Other than that, it's a great place to stay.

Damaged out car and beds hard

Hotel was fine. Beds only slightly softer than cardboard or hay. Valet parked out brand new car. There is now a six inch dent and scratch on rear passenger door. Maybe they hit it with hard @$$ bed.

Modern style we love. Will look for other Moxy locations when we travel. But the bathroom light was motion sensor— no one wants a bright light turning on in the middle of the night.

4pm is a pretty late check-in as it is and we got there at 4:15pm and our room was not ready. Staff was very friendly and the rooms were very clean. Excellent showers. The rooms are very small tho. Very little room to do anything in but sleep. Convenient and cheap overnight parking in a garage close by

Unique, clean, and minimalist design

Clean, comfortable, and minimalist. The lack of a chair, dresser or closet storage would make a longer stay a bit challenging but it was a great room for a weekend getaway!

Ultra Modern Clean Hotel

Very modern hotel. The room I reserved had two double beds that were separated by the bathroom, which was very nice. Everything was very clean. The beds were a bit hard, but I was still able to get a decent night sleep. This hotel is steps away from the Sylvee which was perfect for this visit. I would definitely stay again.
The artwork has copies that can be ripped off and taken home.

Would put the valet fee/ option upfront as there are not many other overnight parking options. That being said, the valet and hotel staff were positive and caring.
