Our room was full of black, sooty dust and the windows did not lock. Really needs to be repainted with scuff marks and cracks. The service staff were very kind and helpful and the beds and bedding comfortable. A real mixed bag, but I would not return.

Staff was so nice but can do better in cleanliness. To my surprise parking is not added to hotel reservations so had to pay extra and thankfully they had a spot open when we got there or else we would of had to go look somewhere else to park. There parking garage is open to the public so it gets full fast.

Disliked: Amenities
I stayed here 10+ years ago and it looks like they haven’t done anything to it to maintain. Some broken fixtures and major wear and tear. The fabric chairs in the lobby are so incredibly dirty and worn out. The rooms have chipped paint and stains on the ceilings. The cleaners aren’t cleaning the mugs and only wiping them out, the counters in the room were sticky. I bought some Clorox wipes and cleaned the room and bathroom after they came in and cleaned it. It has little to do with the staff and everything to do with the owners. They will need to step it up or they are going to loose major business. I won’t be back unless they solve the problems. With that said, the building is cool, it is a boutique hotel and it is charming. So with the deferred maintenance resolved and some staff training, this place could be great again, like it was.
