I was right on the street and the curtains did little to shield the outside lights which were very bright. Otherwise, I had a nice stay. The staff was super nice, friendly, and helpful.

The room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom could use extra attention on the floors and shower tiles. The extra blankets were appreciated. No in room coffee was a bit disappointing but the coffee bar in the lobby was well stocked and the coffee was flavorful. WiFi was poor to fair most times in our room. Continental breakfast was good. Hotel is close to several restaurants, shopping areas, and the Lincoln Theater. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Very cordial staff! Great restaurant for lunch and dinner. Nice small, intimate bar. Breakfast was standard. Great bed! Parking provided behind building. Very old facility with a neat history but needs a great deal of updating and deep cleaning. Elevator to floors yet stairs to access elevator. NOT ACCESSIBLE facility too many stairs in and outside. ..Had we known that we would not have stayed there.

We had a great stay at this historic old hotel! The staff was super friendly and the hotel retained many original features from the 20's and was very charming! "Breakfast" was not much of anything, but it was a good value even without the breakfast.
