Lovely hotel. Very bouji. Nice big room and despite being on the first floor, was very quiet. Didn't get a chance to use most of the facilities but the coffee and snacks were generous, the parking easy ($19 a night), location great and the staff friendly. Very happy with our stay.

My boyfriend and I have stayed here twice now, and really enjoy this hotel! This last time was his birthday and the staff was really awesome about adding some special touches to make him feel special. I think the hotel itself is beautiful— I just love the old Art Deco building and so appreciate that the style is kept throughout. The holiday decor was lovely! Our rooms have always been clean and comfy. The first time we came we did brunch at Elderwood, this time we did dinner— both delicious! Nothing to criticize about this hotel, we love it and look forward to staying again sometime!

Beautiful renovation of an art deco building with so much history, and a stunning rooftop restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, and friendly staff, such as Dominick and the female server with purple hair, (whose name we didn't get). The pool needs a special positive shoutout-- it's not only heated, but super heated, with very warm water coming out of ports under the water. We were there in January, so that was extra nice. It's a small pool, but big enough to do short laps.

Beautiful hotel with very comfortable beds right in the middle of town. Walk to restaurants, coffee, etc just a block away. The pool is heated - you could even swim in winter. You have to pay for parking, but there is plenty of street parking. The restaurant has very good food. Downside: A lot of stairs to go up and down in this historic building. No bathrobes to wear out to the pool.
