Kathryn, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Rooms were clean, buttons on elevators would go in and out. Pool is closed indefinitely! have to pay a fee for wifi even if you use the “free” wifi. staff was welcoming though just the ownership is very poor

Great hotel in a great location

We had a great stay at this hotel. Unfortunately, only one elevator was working, so that was a bit inconvenient. The staff was all wonderful! Many sights are within walking distance.

Historic Landmark ahoy.

The staff here is amazing! The hotel is less than 3 minutes from the historic landmarks. Only issue was the shower was broken so water poured about of the bottom while shower was going.
Joshua, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location.
Walter, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Pool was empty and under repair. That should be publicly announced and room rate discounted. Shower faucet was loose from the wall. No room service. No lobby market. This was just a very basic hotel that was painted to look nice.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

In a great location!
Heather, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The property was not up to the standard that I’d expect. The room was large, but some of the wood panelling was missing in the room. Additionally, the air conditioning was incredibly loud. A minor point was the layout as you enter the hotel, everyone seemed to have the same issue of not really knowing where to check-in. A big disappointment was the permanent swimming pool closure. No one warned me of that and it was one of the reasons for booking.
John Edward, 1-night trip

The place is getting a bit tired around the edges, but is still glorious, quiet, and comfortable. Would definitely stay there again.
