Please stay away from here!!!! The entire venue is unsafe, even the hotel parking lot. You will witness burglaries right in front of the hotel all while security just stand around and do nothing.

The security here is beyond unprofessional. They are dangerous. Please do not hesitate to call 911 when you are invariably assaulted by the security.

This place is terrible. Please do not hesitate to call the police after there are invariably security issues. The security will lie about any incidents. This place is not safe and needs to close.

Beautiful venue/event space. It was not a night club when I went for a fundraiser. The place was full of art, it was clean, catered, spacious and lovely. Lots of small rooms to find a cozy spot to sit and socialize. The only thing I didn't like is that 1 area was off limits.

I was only 1 minute after 11 and they made me pay the cover fee. I even asked the cashier and she did not care and just flat out said yes you still have to pay. There was only 1 bouncer therefore I got checked in late even though I was in line before 11pm. Horrible customer service. Will not come there again.

Horrible!!! They over serve everyone. The guards and bartenders are beyond rude and unprofessional. My friend was hit my one of the guards for no reason. Stay Away!

I LOVED this place! I had the best time dancing here! The staff was so friendly and shared with us the drink specials of the night. We took them up on a special of the night and was satisfied with the suggestion. We never had to wait very long to order/receive a drink. It is however a bit pricey. This was not your typical Southwest type of dance club it was very modern. They do have a strict dress code (collars required for men) but we went dressed to impress . They had a couple of DJ's so you did have a choice of music to dance to. I will definitely return for another night out on the town.

Do Not Waste Your Money At This Horrible Venue! Worst service we have had anywhere. We reserved a VIP table. When we got there with our entire group they did not have us down correctly and were arguing that we did not have a table. I had to pull up my confirmation email to prove I had a reservation, then the VIP host realized that it was on her calendar just not added to the front list with no apologies and a bad attitude. They would not let in some of our guests due to shoes, I guess high end shoes are offensive to the owners. The bouncers were arguing with our guests. Finally at our table we could not get a drink and after having a round of drinks the waitstaff did not clear our table. At the end of night leaving a fight broke out and people were throwing rocks and bottles at cars.

Do NOT come here after 10! They let a few people in every 30 mins. I stood in line for over an hour which is longer than I've ever waited for any place including Vegas! Only reason I even stayed was because I was there for a friend's birthday. Young crowd, no surprise there since it is a club. Once inside bottle service was great, the staff was attentive and the bartender was on point. The description of this being an old house with several rooms is accurate, but it works. I like HipHop and Reggae/Dancehall so the DJ was just okay to me. Overall, it's a cool place if they managed the line better maybe had a guest HipHop DJ this place would be dope.

Dress code is middle school prom. They're pretty strict about it. The $20 guy cover keeps the riff raff out. Multiple dance floors. I wish I knew about this place when I was single. The guy girl ratio is kind of crazy. Lots of couches. Good place to party.
