    “I had heard they had rotating art exhibits and decided to drop in. I thought it was a historic hotel and only later discovered 21c is a chain in various cities. All the art had a minority and LGBT focus but I guess you have to expect that in a woke city post George Floyd. Either way, the quality was excellent. Exhibit larger than I expected, encompassing two floors.”

  • It was great!! Definitely would stay here again if I’m ever in the area.

    “The art. The room was very nice but needed a little more personality. Considering the focus of the hotel, the rooms needed some artwork themselves. Bed and linens were comfortable. The breakfast and the staff were good.”
