It's an interesting concept and well executed. There's no front desk or lobby; instead there's good automated communications via email, WhatsApp, etc. My little studio was pretty nice. I especially liked the locally sourced furniture and other items. But ultimately I didn't love my one night stay. The room are nice, but the building is older. There's a single, smallish elevator that can't handle the traffic when the property is busy. Lines frequently form. Not too bad to take the stairs, if you are on a lower floor and without much luggage, but if the opposite, be prepared to wait. The automated luggage room doesn't have enough lockers to store your stuff after check-out completely safely. If you want to open a window for fresh air, you need a special tool, but it only exists in a common area and might not be there when you want it -- so at least two extra trips out of your room just to try to open the window. Bob W. stands for "best of both worlds" and, while there are many nice things about this innovative property, I think I prefer a more traditional hotel.
