This elegant transformation of a former Masonic temple was a real surprise since the photos on Expedia looked as if taken at a Holiday Inn. While the rooms are understated, they are just the right size, and everything seemed new and of good quality. (The bathroom hardware is especially beautiful.) The room was completely quiet, and, unexpectedly, the pillows were just right--one firm and the other soft and downy. The masonic theme, beginning with two regal thrones in the lobby, as smarly carried throughout the corridors and rooms.

We had a brief stay and arrived fairly late at night after an exhausting day of driving. The valet parking was a bit chaotic as several of the people standing around didn’t offer any direction of where to pull up and such. Outside of the valet component, our stay was good. The room was as a good size, beds were comfortable and we would definitely stay here again.
