Phenomenal place to stay! Well worth the trip. Staff is excellent. Food exquisite. Will be back!
Robin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Air conditioning was excellent and we had breakfast at the Perk around the corner; It was a sweet little place to sit and visit. The breakfast food at the Perk was good but maybe just a tad spicy for us.
Lisa, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything was amazing except for the actual sleeping. I was on the first floor, and the back door clanging open and shut every few minutes until past midnight by restaurant staff was extremely loud. I would definitely stay here again but would request a different floor.
Patrick, 1-night trip

Satisfactory
Danny A, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very comfortable! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was a bit loud for our taste, however there were several other dining options available within walking distance. We chose this hotel for its uniqueness and convenient proximity to the train station. We would certainly stay here again.

CINDI, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean room, (not spotless but very clean). Comfortable bed. Quaint decor and very open rooms. Main door lock is impossible to latch but we managed with a travel lock. Staff was friendly. Shower pressure was outstanding! Nice coffee machine. The shampoo, conditioner and other toiletries were very nice although the mouthwash and lotion were old. Overall a good stay.
