Description of the Host Property:
From the indie heart of Downtown Dallas' Deep Ellum neighborhood, where legendary '20s blues musicians once played, The Kimpton Pittman Hotel celebrates its storied past with contemporary flourishes. Here, our century-old Beaux Arts exterior blends with modern glass and steel interiors. Gather inside our American tavern for wood-fired plates or settle around the outdoor deck for craft beers and live music. And, work or play, our art-filled common areas make the perfect meeting place for coffee and cocktails. Later, venture outside for vibrant street murals, cafes, craft breweries and 30 music venues.
Description of the Training:
