Loved the history baked right into the hotel itself. Great recommendations from front desk staff. We appreciate hotel cleaning staff honoring our wishes to not have our room cleaned during our two nights stay — we’re pretty clean and don’t use that many of the complimentary items to need a restock😊. Dinner and breakfast at Scarlet were delicious— also great staff!

Beautiful room! Loved it. The hotel is wonderfully historical. The food was excellent but both times we went to the restaurant, we were told they didn't have tables for three, which seemed odd with the number of empty tables. However, we did end up being seated both times.
