My stay at Vu Guesthouse was highlighted by the warm and helpful staff who made me feel right at home, and the unique atmosphere added a fun twist to my experience. The room was impressively clean and welcoming, which I really appreciated. However, the location is a bit concerning, sitting on the edge of a neighborhood that feels a bit sketchy, which made me uneasy at times.

The location was a bit removed from the main downtown area, which had its pros and cons. It felt nice to be away from the hustle, but I noticed it was in a light industrial zone, and some parts looked a little shady.

My stay at Vu Guesthouse was pretty enjoyable overall, with a unique vibe and clean rooms that had a cozy feel. The only hiccup was having to grab coffee in the lobby since I was in a room a bit offsite. Still, the friendly staff made everything feel welcoming, which really balanced things out.

The location is a bit off the downtown core, which felt safe, but it’s also within several blocks walking distance to the action in downtown. Plus, I could easily reach the interstate and downtown by car.

The complimentary breakfast coffee was a nice touch, but aside from that, I didn't get to try any dining options during my stay. It would’ve been great to have more local seasonal dishes available.
