I stay at the Blackhawk every time I come to town for work. BUT.... now that they don't have onsite parking (which is recent) - I would not stay here again. Having to drag a suitcase and other things 2-4 blocks is just horrible. Especially when its cold and bad weather. Unless they fix the parking issue, I would not recommend.

Comfortable stay
This is a lovely historical hotel that has been nicely updated. Very clean and comfortable. It was very quiet also. Can’t beat the downtown location. We were able to easily walk to shops and restaurants. $10 breakfast vouchers were given for each day at a choice of four local restaurants. Only negatives - pillows could have been bigger and more comfortable, and our room did not have a microwave.

We loved the location and the unique style of this hotel. It was like a step back in time. The furnishings were in great condition, but antique. The bed was comfortable. The rooms were clean, but the bathroom needed some maintenance. There was mold in the caulking around the tub that needed to be replaced. The check-in staff and the bartender were very nice. Overall, a great stay.
