The overall stay was nice, staff was great. My only complaint is the shower is very loud. And can hear the neighboring rooms when they shower also. We were close to the street and the it was not sound proof as stated.

My boyfriend and I have stayed here twice now, and really enjoy this hotel! This last time was his birthday and the staff was really awesome about adding some special touches to make him feel special. I think the hotel itself is beautiful— I just love the old Art Deco building and so appreciate that the style is kept throughout. The holiday decor was lovely! Our rooms have always been clean and comfy. The first time we came we did brunch at Elderwood, this time we did dinner— both delicious! Nothing to criticize about this hotel, we love it and look forward to staying again sometime!

Room was great nice and clean, hotel was so cute! The amenities were great. The staff were very nice! The heated pool was lovely the complementary snacks were sweet gesture. Elderwood was spectacular, if we were getting food or drinks the host and servers were so kind.

Beautiful renovation of an art deco building with so much history, and a stunning rooftop restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, and friendly staff, such as Dominick and the female server with purple hair, (whose name we didn't get). The pool needs a special positive shoutout-- it's not only heated, but super heated, with very warm water coming out of ports under the water. We were there in January, so that was extra nice. It's a small pool, but big enough to do short laps.

Beautiful hotel. The rooms are so pretty and comfortable. The bathroom is so beautiful. The service is great. The roof top restaurant is amazing. Make reservations if you want to sit on the patio. I really recommend staying here.

Wasn’t overly impressed with the front desk gal. She gave us no direction as to where to go after checking in. We parked the car and headed inside. Took the first elevator as we came in and it put us in what felt like a service hallway. Then we poked around going up stairs with our stuff still trying to find out room. Once inside it was super hot. Super cute room but the high ceilings made it hard to cool quickly. Cute place but probably won’t go back.

Beautiful hotel with very comfortable beds right in the middle of town. Walk to restaurants, coffee, etc just a block away. The pool is heated - you could even swim in winter. You have to pay for parking, but there is plenty of street parking. The restaurant has very good food.
Downside: A lot of stairs to go up and down in this historic building. No bathrobes to wear out to the pool.
