Meeting · 4 guests · August 2024 · Underbelly

Great location, easy communication, I'd use the spot again in a heartbeat. Any issues you see were minor and easy to adjust in the future.

The space was overly bright and the lamp inside was very dim. It would have been helpful to have a few lamps or the ability to turn some of the overhead lights on and not all. The staff attempted to find me an additional lamp, but it still wasn't enough with the overheads off. I was there for 4 days - every day there was one issue or another with the key card. We didn't have the room fully set up when we arrived. My guests had no signage or way to find out where to go on day one and front desk staff were not informed.
