My suite Room was super sexy complete with a pommel horse at the end of the bed. The history was so rich throughout the beautiful old architectural gem! I especially loved the breakfast room , the food was awesome. The rooftop bar had amazing views and the margs were not too shabby. Great vibe!!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is very clean and full of history and character. I really loved the beautiful historic architecture and the unique atmosphere of the property. However, there were a few things that could be improved. The hotel does not have a swimming pool, and the pillows were not very comfortable for sleeping. Also, the bathroom layout could have been designed better—the bathroom door often hits the toilet when opening or closing, which makes the space feel a little awkward and inconvenient. Other than these minor issues, I really enjoyed my stay and appreciated the charm, character, and history of this beautiful hotel.
