- JBJohn Bushnell3 days ago1.0The evening front desk are not very knowledgeable. It our 10th wedding anniversary and I requested flowers be left in room for my wife and it never happened. Iask where the nearest ATM was and they couldn't even direct me. The room are expensive and you have to pay for breakfast.
- CCCaitlinNov 16, 20252.0All of the workers at Valet were extremely helpful and nice to us. However, the workers at the hotel were not. We had to switch rooms 3 times because of it being so hot and the air not working. The room we were placed in last was still hot, however the fan in the room did help a little bit. But the shower in the last room had mold inside of it. Not sanitary. After paying over $400 for our room PLUS a $200 deposit when we got here, we just checked out and they asked for $19 more. I will not be visiting this hotel again.
- GMGary MartinNov 15, 20255.0We stayed here for our 20th anniversary and we absolutely love the service and hospitality. The history of the hotel is very interesting as well such an old historic building. The rooms are very clean and spacious. They did have some AC issues with cooling the room, but they accomodated us for the troubles. The Valet Ashleigh was great very courteous
- CCC T (CT)Nov 13, 20255.0We stayed for long weekend. Staff were all very nice and helpful. there were couple of valet parking staff that were little less than happy to be there so that would be my only negative in regards to better F2F customer service but didn't deter from overall stay. oh yes valet since it is downtown. can try other garages for cheaper option but don't see street parking. Manager was very excited to share information about the historic hotel when I asked. the room I was assigned to was opened though and when I went down to the front desk, they immediately changed my room, went to check on that room, walked us to our new room. great service. large rooms! everything worked just fine. great location, we walked to the river, 5-10 mins. neighborhood has plenty of places to eat. Overall great stay!
- JFJerimiah FlowersNov 8, 20255.0Robin at the front desk was fantastic. She was friendly, professional, and made check-in super easy. Throughout my stay, she was always helpful and approachable, whether it was answering questions or giving great local tips. It’s clear she really cares about the guests and takes pride in her work. Thanks to Robin, my stay started off on the right foot and ended just as smoothly.
