Beautiful historic property,
Pros:

The room was great. I loved the extra big closet and cleanliness.

Cons:

The refrigerator wasn’t plugged in and couldn’t get the plug to the wall cuz it was in a case and the plug couldn’t be pulled through. Also there was a a race Saturday morning and it was sooooo loud. The desk should have warned us or given out ear plugs.

Our stay was perfect!

From the moment we arrived everyone was welcoming. We arrived much sooner than expected and we were able to check into our room early which was fabulous. We had a river view that was beautiful and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse as well.

Cons:

There was not a single thing we didn't like. Our stay was perfect!

Underwhelming and over priced
Pros:

Shops located inside

Cons:

I was placed in the old tower of the hotel. The picture they use is the new tower. That’s where I thought I would be staying. The old tower is dirty, musty, and just old. Very underwhelming

No vuelvo a dejar mi tarjeta para que me retengan dinero el día del checkin. Estamos vendidos!!!
Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

Me han cobrado el gasto del parking de 4 días que no he usado, con el
Dinero retenido con mi tarjeta de crédito que suministre el día de mi entrada. He enviado un mail, reclamando que me hagan el abono de esos
4 días, y nadie se han puesto en contacto conmigo. Ahora estoy en España y no sé cómo voy a recuperar mi dinero!!!
