Great place to stay and relax

Clean room. Slightly smaller bathroom than I expected. Very comfortable bed and just enough room. Very fun historic hotel with a beautiful lobby. The manual elevator was an interesting treat. The staff was very accommodating and helpful.

While the staff was very nice & helpful, the rooms are very small-smaller than I expected after choosing a room online. The bathroom showed signs of wear. We heard every door on the floor slam shut each night. Bed was comfy and room clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was very friendly. Loved the vintage style however, the room is a lot smaller than I thought it would be. There is no counter space other than where the coffee machine & cups are. The elevator doors are very heavy & only 1 was working.

Stacy

Disliked: Room comfort
The aesthetic was cute but the room was uncomfortable , you would go from hot to cold and then back to hot in a matter of 30 minutes . The noise was horrible, you could hear every door slam shut every 15 minutes with people using the stairs, so if sleep is what you are looking for don’t stay here.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Inattentive staff, we asked to be called on the phone so we wouldn’t miss the fly the next day, but they didn’t. In the room was no shower gel in the dispenser, not even a handsoap. Glass bottle in the room too expensive ($13 each) Expensive for what they offer. They intend to preserve the classic style of the hotel and it looks beautiful.
