There were several restaurants on the same street within walking distance.The loft itself was clean, very large and had everything we needed for our overnight stay. The decor was cute and bright. The beds were comfortable, and there was a choice of pillows. I would definitely recommend if you’re visiting anywhere near Playhouse Square."
