It sure is a uniquely themed and relatively small hotel, with basketball themed hardwoods, and headboards on each bed. The staff are great and the bar area is particularly nice. Facilities are limited and breakfast is not included. The building infrastructure Needs a little work as the AC unit was incredibly Loud, the loudest of any hotel I’ve ever stayed at and the concrete on the balcony was crumbling. I do think that the hotel was overpriced for the services on offer but you can’t beat the location.

Large room with quirky decor (shabby chic?) was clean and quiet. The helpfulness and friendliness of the staff, particularly "Shy" (who was not shy) made this a five star experience.

The property itself and staff were great. We were disappointed with one staff member who removed the basketballs at 8:45 pm when the kids were told they could play until 9:30pm. She stated that a guest complained and so one guest was allowed to ruin the experience for 3 other families. Due to a baseball camp we had limited other time to enjoy this feature. The breakfast food in trophy room wasn’t the best but the coffees were awesome. Rooms were clean and front desk staff was extremely helpful. The Granville towers replica dorm room was cool to show my son since I stayed there while in school.
