The historical elements of the building has been tastefully preserved. The staff were awesome. I happen to leave my keys in our room at check out. Arriving back home I discovered that senior moment. The staff quickly arranged to have the keys mailed to me.

Beautiful, updated historic hotel in downtown.
Pros:

Beautiful, updated, elegant hotel

Cons:

Parking garage was attached to the hotel, but not attached to every floor. Three trips from car to room took approximately 20 minutes and many steps. Plan accordingly!

Was great ideal location ..
Pros:

It’s gorgeous.. Logan the front desk clerk upon check in was engaging.. welcoming.. and very helpful..

Cons:

Upon check out the mid fifties woman with strawberry blonde hair .. didn’t get her name .. needs to have a training orientation on what not to say to guests.. an older gentleman who butted in line in front of of me .. yes.. she probably assumed we were together .. we weren’t .. I over heard her say to him “oh I’m not from here .. not familiar with the area .. from beaver dam ripon ? .. he does not care .. it’s not about her .. it’s about your guests standing in front of you ..

The same with the woman in the cafe .. she obviously did not want to be there either ..
