10/10 Excellent

WOW!! I LOVED this property!! The history is so fascinating and everything inside fits with the charm of the building. I loved the high ceilings and the fact that there was a gym right in the building. We stayed there to attend a concert, which was just a walk down the street. Everything was so clean, safe, close to shopping and restaurants, and literally perfect. We will definitely be back!

Historic beauty

This historical building was beautiful. The bed was so comfortable as soon as my head hit the pillow i was out! It was great for a romantic night away with my husband.
April, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

This former insane asylum promises to be a great, modernized hotel. All a lie. Everything is dark and dingy, with tiny rooms resembling a prison. Worse, the supposedly glamourous grounds are in disrepair and most of the adjacent buildings are genuine mental health facilities, all in the midst of a run-down neighborhood.
Arthur, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This place was spectacular from check-in to check out! Definitely recommend!
Jasmine, 1-night trip
