Great potential but falls short on an important aspect Amazing and fun themed hotel that is pushing the live music atmosphere, but isn’t prepared for times that are wildly important to new customers. Went to an Edm style benefit concert of sorts that had the hotel sell out 48 hours ahead of time, but at 5pm when 80% of the tables at their highly reputable restaurant in the hotel were empty, we were told it was a 3+ hour wait for a table. Their could be a number of reasons why this happened, but no doubt they didn’t find a way to be prepared for 52 rooms of new future customers checking in that would want to eat before a night of having fun on property which was a massive shame. Us and multiple others ordered from uber eats due to their “Togo” menu had 3 choices, hamburger that didn’t allow any kind of special order, including simply asking for no thousand island, chips or side of fries. I worked many years in restaurants and when we knew in advance that a big night was GUARANTEED 2 days in advance, we prepared to get as many guests in and out as we could. Instead the majority of us patrons were turned away with a 3+ hour wait to an 80% empty dining room. Had an amazing time with our hotel room and the music, but something as easy to solve/prepare for to impress a crowd that mainly has never been there before, they dropped the ball. This place has a ton of potential but with pushing a drinking/music atmosphere where most patrons are staying on property overnight, having an easy to enjoy food experience should be at the top of their priority list.

Only good if you're on a party vacation and under 25 yrs of age Ok, long-winded review. Let me start by saying the place is cute and the staff are very friendly. But that is where it ends. First off, there are very few rooms and there is nowhere around the site to park, yet you have to pay for a parking space at a motel...shame on them for nickel and diming clients. I walk into the room and thought I was in the room of a teenager....ok, its kind of silly fun. Wait, why are there ear plugs on the bedside I thought...this can't be good. I turned on the tv for some background noise while I worked.....it wasn't working. A staff member came after a few minutes and got it working. I logged into their wifi which worked fine and worked for a couple hours before heading to a client event 5 minutes away. I got back from my client event at midnight with a long day of work in the morning. I laid down, it was nice and quiet but for hearing every footfall from upstairs. at 12.15, the abutting room starts blasting EDM music. I never like being that guy, so I broke out the earplugs....no luck...the constant thump of the EDM came right through. The rooms don't have phones, but there is a number you can text for support. I texted the number twice asking if they have quiet hours and could they do something. I never received a response. I checked every 20 minutes when the music woke me up again. Needless to say, between the overly firm bed and the music I hardly slept. I woke up at 4:30 barely able to hold my eyes open. I thought about packing up and just heading into the office, but I was too exhausted. Closed my eyes and woke again at 4:40AM when finally the music stopped. I got up in an exhausted stupor at 7, got in the shower and felt a little better. As I reach for a towel, I realize there is nothing but two small hand-towels. Got ready and went to check out. I asked the front desk staff why I never got a response to my text. They had no idea and apologized for the noise and the lack of towels. They offered a free coffee and a McMuffin and I hit the road. If you are over the age of 25 and are there on business, do not stay at the Egyptian. You will be sorry you did. The place is cute with the updates, but it is window dressing.

Overall pretty good, some quirks Definitely meets the premise of being a hip, rock-n-roll motel, catering to the youngish crowd. The room had fun, colorful, well thought out design. There is a hip hang out area in the courtyard, with a bar & funky chairs. However, it was closed both nights I was there, so it felt like a ghost town. The bathroom is ridiculously tiny (though the water pressure is good). Some nice touches, like a filtered water pitcher, tiny cooler, and robes. Don’t stay in any ground level rooms— you can hear every footstep from the rooms above. Friendly service. Overall, though, I don’t think all the hipster designs cover up the fact that this is basically a motel 6 with a fresh coat of paint.

Karen Free , 70s style and party.. This is a great place. Loved the style, the place is not foe a goto bed early crowd. Was in town for Game On Expo and just loved it. Like a trip back in time. Yeah if your with a family I dont suggest, but booked it a second time becuse everything was about having fun. If you wanna meet and hang with new people,, then this is great. The cafe sucks, but was not there for food. The band, and late movies in the front of the hotel was fun. If I would pick something to complain about would be price , parking and cafe. Didnt stop me from comming back. It was like a back yard party, with new friends to meet. Check it out. Not for Karens!!

The art is great and not much else. I wanted to like this place, I really did. Clearly a lot of thought went into the design, and that part definitely works. But there just aren't very many people for whom this place fits. Pros: --Very cool midcentury design and unique original artwork. --Fun games in the bar area like foosball, cornhole and jenga. --Only $15 per day for parking. (PAY IT if you want your car to still be there in the morning.) --On-site nouveau Mexican restaurant is very good (but see Cons, below) Cons: --Our room had no windows, other than the big one that looks onto the corridor people walk by regularly. So, no natural light or no privacy, your call. --Loud music until late. I mean LOUD, like the band is in the room with you. Who thought that motel and outdoor music venue were compatible uses? --Was charged $4.50 for a regular (decent, not great) cup of coffee. This should be free. --Food at restaurant was very expensive and prices were opaque. (When the chicken mole says "market price", watch out. Lesson learned.) --Service at the restaurant was atrocious. My date's food arrived easily 15 minutes before mine. I asked the server why and she gaslighted me. (She said the kitchen wanted to "bring the food out fresh" -- implying that I prefer cold stale food, when actually I just want to eat a meal as the same time as my date!) --Neighborhood is extremely dicey. As in, people sleeping on concrete and human excrement on the sidewalk half a block away. So basically, if you love funky establishments and have lots of cash but aren't too concerned about a good night's sleep, this is the place for you.
