"We're here for some really nice refreshing cocktails and some light appetizers." "Really wanted to make it part of the neighborhood and a great hang for whether you're a bartender finishing work, or you're just casually around, sitting on the patio and looking for something fun to do," he said.

Two Phoenix-based businesses, Vintage Partners, a real estate and investment company, and Venue Projects, a redevelopment company, partnered to repurpose two mid-century modern office buildings into a hotel.

The 79-room boutique hotel opened in September 2020 amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic near Fourth Avenue and Camelback Road, not far from the Uptown Plaza shopping complex.
