Read it your way

Set in Dallas's Deep Ellum neighborhood, the Kimpton Pittman Hotel provides a boutique stay highlighted by contemporary art and 12-foot ceilings. Visitors appreciate the comfortable king-sized beds, attentive front desk staff, and stylish monochromatic bathrooms with deep soaking tubs. However, noise is a regular complaint, with sound from the nearby light rail station, busy intersections, and local nightlife filtering directly into street-facing rooms. 1614212
