Fun to stayed in a beautifully restored, historic inn.
Pros:

Loved the restoration of the Frank Lloyd Wright hotel. It was beautiful. We especially liked playing pool in the Billiard Room (formerly the Men’s Lounge) and having a drink. Lovely ambiance. Beds were very comfortable. Room was super clean. We also really enjoyed the tour of the complex

Cons:

The lighting was super dim in shared areas. It’s probably a Wright detail, but I prefer better lighting.

Pros:

Beautifully restored common areas and exterior. Really well done. Staff is super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Rooms were a little beat up, mattress was hard as a rock, could hear people above us walking around (to be expected in a historic hotel, still didn’t love it), and people talking in alley outside window until early morning hours.

Loved the overall feel of this FLW gem.
Cons:

The windows are very dirty. The food quality in the restaurant was sub-par and they don't offer breakfast. They should provide a historical brochure of the property in every room.

It’s a great place to visit and look around at the FLW touches.
Pros:

Such an iconic place to stay!

Cons:

The bathroom we had could use some attention. The sink is cracked tho it does not appear to leak. Thought it was a long hair in the bowl. lol
The mirror is mounted really close to the outside wall and it makes it hard to stand directly in front of it when using it. Minor stuff maybe but you asked.
