The property is very unique, room has a homey vibe but very modern feel. I would want to live here, versus feeling like my grandma lives here. The person who checked us in was so helpful, she gave us a ton of recommendations for places to eat, find live music, shopping to suit many tastes. Property on the whole has a really cool feel and would def recommend.

This is a wonderful converted mansion. Knowing that helps set your expectations for something closer to a B&B than a hotel. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was a light buffet so not quite typical in comparison to most B&B’s I’ve stayed at. The room was a fun design and color scheme and well appointed for comfort. It felt a little like we were staying at a friend’s house and told to help ourselves. It’s unique and something we’d would come back for. The area is fine, but nothing special. I would say it felt like an area in transition and the midst of revival. For someone that wants polished, tourist focused neighborhood, this might not be the best fit.

The issues we had were with the room which had a major moisture issue (huge dehumidifier in room) that caused the room to be musty. The parking was not always available and the quality of the in room furniture was like a flea market. Too pricey for the experience. Staff is very nice.
