Dreamers was such a charming boutique hotel that feels like a traditional B&B with a contemporary twist. From its designer’s decor to its amenities on site, it was a very memorable experience staying there for a short trip. I spend around 100 nights at hotel each year for my work, and the Dreamers really made an impression! It makes me rethink that I should spend more time at boutique properties like this rather than mainline chain.

Loved the uniqueness of the property and the themed rooms. Inside of the hotel feels cozy and welcoming. I checked in after 6 so I had to self check-in and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. They have tea, coffee and water available 24/7. I didn't get to try the breakfast because I had to be at work early but they were nice enough to leave me some overnight oats and a muffin for to-go. They were both delicious! Thanks again for a cozy and comfortable stay!
