Great room, amazing, staff, and very comfortable to stay at. Feels like you’re at a vacation home with staff to take car
Pros:

One of the nicest most unique hotels ever. We normally don’t stay in hotels and go for an Airbnb but this checked all the boxes. Older vibe all around music and old architecture with all the new feel from the furniture, to the light fixtures, and all the great amenities.

Cons:

Only negative to even speak of, which is just the area not their fault, is paying $60 a night to park

Decent, given the location and amenities, but not worth the money.
Pros:

Location, staff, decor

Cons:

It feels like highway robbery to pay that much for a one-night stay and you don’t even offer breakfast. You should learn from European hotels. They always offer the most delightful buffet breakfasts. They put your hotel to shame.

Pros:

Property was recently renovated but the property is very old. I liked that they kept certain aspects of the hotel. Our windows were frosted so we could not see out which I wasn’t a fan of. Room was huge!
