Is The Social House good? Overview, pros and cons

“The Social House's party vibe”
The Social House is a small club-style boutique with a young relaxed social vibe — daily themed parties drawing influencers, design-forward industrial decor, very clean well-kept spaces, comfy beds, a chic restaurant with good steak and self-roasted coffee, a dream-worthy breakfast, a cool rooftop bar, and friendly staff who remember your preferences. Caveats though: rooms run small and tight, checkout takes time, one booking was charged extra at reception for a second person, and shampoo was missing.
