Love this property. My room was small but it was strategically designed with everything in mind. I did not feel like I was in a small room at all. Bed was comfy. Loved having the rooftop to have party time, enjoyed the green juice bar each morning of my stay, and the lobby is a coworking space dream. 10/10 do recommend.

Replacing irons with steamers were a great idea until I looked inside & realized that I had been releasing and inhaling mold the entire time I was doing so. The steam smelled funny so I looked inside and seen there was an entire cluster of mold coating the inside of the steamer. I do have video footage to show, this is such a health hazard & could possibly affect my respiratory system.

The aesthetic was cool and the location was good but the rooms don’t have ventilation so unless you keep your window open it smells so musky and mouldy and like toilet water. I️ even found mould on the inside of the film on the glass in the shower. They were kind enough to change rooms but still that was a large inconvenience.

Public is a really hip, happening place. Beautiful public spaces, great food in the restaurant, nice/helpful employees, all sorts of options for entertainment or lounging in the building. That said…I’m older and apparently used to more luxury hotel rooms than hip/happening. Ha! So, if privacy (looking at you, glass enclosed tile shower and toilet room for all to “kinda” see) or plush towels or comfy seating are your things like they are apparently mine more than I thought, definitely don’t book a double room with someone you barely know. My arthritic knee struggled crawling in and out of the platform bed on the floor, but the view of the city through the window wall behind it *truly was outstanding*. No hate to the hotel…I just didn’t know what I was looking at in the online pics. It is a wonderful spot for people without bad joints and no worries about the echo from the bathroom. For me, well, I’m not hip enough for that room. (I will also say I was truly disappointed by the lack of any recycling options.)
