“What stood out to me is the distinct boutique vibe, a welcome departure from typical hotels, especially with its curated art and cozy lounge. Its Koreatown location provides walkable access to diverse dining and the benefit of evening wine is a particularly nice touch, encouraging a sense of community. The outdoor pool is also a plus, giving an extra something to enjoy.”
