Great
Pros:

We did not do breakfast

Cons:

Very concerned about the safety for both the client and valet services regarding check in. The exposure to traffic definitely a life safety issue. Please advise the valet service guys not to stop traffic and putting themselves at risk.

Beautiful property for a couple’s getaway.
Pros:

It’s a beautifully appointed interior. Classic and fancy. The staff were very quick to respond to requests.

Cons:

The mattresses were a bit too soft for me. The A/C unit in the room was very noisy when it turned on and off.
In the morning the Cafe ordering was a bit cumbersome. I used the order online option and assumed it would be brought to the cashier station. Instead, I needed to check in with the cashier.

My stay was great overall.
Pros:

Very convenient location. I was able to walk through the city to get food at

Cons:

They did not have complimentary coffee in the lounge area other than in the room area. Did not have a microwave to warm foods up if I wanted to eat my leftovers from any outings that day

I stayed overnight for work and had a fine time while at the Admiral.
Pros:

The biggest takeaway is probably the 'vibe' at the Admiral. I'd lived in Mobile a long time ago and never heard of it before, but it's a funky, artistic, kind of place that doesn't take itself too seriously.

There are silly paintings, large statues, LOTS of purple, but it's welcoming--not stuffy, it's fun--not pretentious.

It feels made to be a great Mardi Gras hotel and I look forward to visiting again and bringing my kids--they'll get it a kick out of it for sure.

Cons:

No complaints!

We loved it! From the Living Room bar to the staff to the decor and art. Very cool and unexpected.
Pros:

The room was great. Larger than expected and very comfortable. Love the decor and art. Fun and whimsical.

Cons:

The cafe in the morning. Again, decor was cool but they were out of everything we wanted to order.
