We truly loved our stay. The staff are so kind, parking was a bit tricky but the front desk helped us with that! The bar was stunning and having live music was amazing. We LOVED our room and the bed is legitimately the best bed I have ever slept on. We also didn’t know there was a movie theater in the hotel too!!

The room (107) was a large 1 bedroom suite that was heated by a mini-split in the living room. The heat didn’t make it down the hall to the bedroom, which was cold. Had to ask for a blanket for the bed. There was no extra blanket to be found in the suite. That’s my only complaint. Staff was friendly, room was super clean and comfortable. Excellent location. Nice place to stay.

The staff were wonderful. I didn’t have a remote for my TV so when I went downstairs to ask, the nice front desk person found a few for me to try. I was able to find one that worked. Although when I looked under the bed to look for the original remote I noticed it was extremely dirty underneath. The bed was very comfortable though and the staff extremely helpful.

This is less hotel and more of an event center. When they leave earplugs in your room…use them! The trains and area is loud, especially when there is an event being hosted in the lobby and ball room. Room is spacious, but the bed is about a foot high, so not super easy to get in and out of. Front desk staff wasn’t much help or personable. It’s nice that it’s close and in walking distant to many restaurants in the area.

We were in a modern room, which I did not expect. I thought all rooms were decorated with early 1900 furniture to fit the house, so I was a little disappointed. The room we had was very spacious with a separate living room, which was very nice. We chose to stay in a historic hotel, but not all of the rooms reflect that. Next time I will call directly and request.

Woman at check in this time (October 16th&17th) was a bit officious and pedantic ("I'm holding on to this room key until you give me your phone number and email because Expedia shows them as 00")and uninterested in helping us "I don't know anything about electric vehicle charging". Both encounters were unpleasant. Last time (September 12th), the staff were *excellent*

Second stay at Hotel Leo. Very nice Hotel with a lot of fantastic history. Well maintained, friendly staff with updated rooms. Great central location for walking and visiting restaurants and bars, as well as shopping. Only two drawbacks are limited parking and the beds are too low to the floor.

The hotel is in a great location! Plenty of great coffee shops and restaurants right there. We arrived late and the front desk staff was very nice and accommodating to what we needed. The hotel is older but nice. Our room was great for what we needed. The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner and the bathtub was slow draining which is kinda yucky.
