All in all, I’d definitely book again. Quiet, charming atmosphere!
Pros:

Loved the location! The neighborhood has very interesting restaurants and shops. Easy walk to convention center. Great breakfast and coffee!

Cons:

Parking was a little confusing especially overnight. Staff was great in assisting the parking game. No coffee in room so you have to navigate to the lobby or restaurant.

A lovely change.
Pros:

This property is huge. It would take more than ten days to see every detail and you’d still miss something. Four different themed eating establishments each on a different floor. My room was huge. Big heavy red velvet drapes over the large picture window with a partial view of the water. The king size bed was so dang comfy. I slept wonderfully. I got to the property too early so I lounged in the lobby lounge reading the current newspaper.

Cons:

The shower stall was just too claustrophobic. And there was no mini fridge.

Fun, quirky place.
Pros:

Easy access to local sites. T-Link at the base of the Spanish steps. Decor is quirky and fun. The pub has delicious food. Eggs Benedict and chicken fried steak were so good. The bars were great, each having a few signature drinks. Staff was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Bought The Passport, so planning to visit all the other McMenamins!

Beautiful and Historic Building
Pros:

Everything about this building is beautiful. The in-hotel restaurants were beautiful and convenient, everything I ordered tasted great.

Cons:

No dedicated parking lot. Street parking wasn't too hard to find though, so it worked out fine.
