It was freezing in the halls, it took 5-10 minutes for the water in showers to warm up, then had to keep it full hot water to take a shower. The forat room they tried to put us in was so small my suitcase couldnt roll on the side of a queen bed. Bathroom was so small if you sat on the toilet your forhead touched the sink.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Rooms are antiquated with window units to heat and cool the room. VERY limited electrical outlets for plugging modern devices. Room was noisy from street noise. Parking situation was confusing and should be better explained in hotel description (parking is in the lot of the hotel behind this hotel because they own both, but that is not readily apparent). “Breakfast” was sparse but clean. Perfect location for downtown access.

Stay somewhere else.
Super disappointed. Not at all what the pictures show. They are in the middle of remodeling. At least finish the rooms before you rent them out. No outlets, just tape over future plugs. No lights that worked, except the overhead one, which was dim. The new attempt of modernizing the rooms is a failure. This is a historic hotel, don’t make it look like motel 6 (which would have been better). There is no charm to this place anymore. We think there was semen on the walls. Just awful. Stay somewhere else. Front desk staff was no help and did not even apologize when we brought this up. I don’t think they were impressed by the place they worked at.
Not even a light.
Semen on the walls??
Cracked and dirty tile
