Very progressive!

Jeremy and I took a mini getaway this weekend and stayed the night at the Nylo hotel.
This is one of those new modern hotels where the rooms are lofts. It's actually pretty nice, but not as nice as the Aloft. I knew the whole time Jeremy would point out all the weird stuff and say that it's very progressive!
It started with the Sangria waiting out in the lobby. It looked really good, too bad it was alcohol. There was this "chair" out in the hall that Jeremy tried. It was a square cement block with padding on the inside. I tried out one of those egg chairs that hang from the ceiling. You know the ones I'm talking about?
Our room was polished concrete from floor to ceiling. The bathroom door was a sliding one. The bed had these wooden wheel looking things holding it up and the two-piece headboard was held together with a latch. Two good things...a flat screen TV on a swivel arm and the rain forest shower head! It was all very progressive!
I again picked a restaurant that was too expensive. The food wasn't really worth it, but the dessert was! If you ever try Coast, get their lemon phyllo tart. Yumm!
I enjoy staying at these modern hotels. They are not cookie cutter and it's fun looking at all the weird furniture. I regret not sitting in the padded seating with the low table at breakfast. The kind where you would sit on the floor like in a Japanese place. We thought we would look funny sitting in the wall, so we chose the hay filled table instead! Very progressive!!

Wow sounds like fun! I didn't know they made hotels like that, where do you find that kind of stuff? I'm glad you sat in an egg chair are those cool enough to get in your house? and what is a rainforest shower??
