We enjoyed our stay here. They have delicious cookies and coffee throughout the day. I forgot my son’s stuffed animal and when I emailed them, they immediately replied and mailed it to us. That meant a lot to us. Thank you.

I would rate my experience higher if not for the nonworking safe (did not report), and non working TV, reported and maintenance came immediately to adjust. One bedside lamp has burned bulb (did not report.) My room on the 2nd floor has no view. There is a small bathroom with a deep tub. There’s a rubber ducky in the bathroom to keep! There is no coffee service in the room but there is coffee and tea available in the lobby 24/7, as well as a water refill station. There is no a/c unit in the room but there is a charming ceiling fan. There is also a portable fan and portable heater stowed in the closet in case of uncomfortable temperature. The bed! The bed is extremely comfortable and I had a good night’s sleep. The bath towels are nice and thick. The bath amenities are subtly scented which I like. The staff all around is one of the friendliest in the industry, from check-in to check-out. The friendly bartender Rory accommodated my late arrival for a nightcap. The location can’t be neat, central to everything.

This is a great place to stay. Walk to many restraunts and bars. Hotel is historic so small rooms also no air conditioning. But it was not a problem. Charming hotel. Highly recomended.

Checked in: Sept. 18, 2025. Checked out: Sept. 21, 2025. Strike 1: bad start at check-in. I emailed numerous times prior to arriving to request an early check in because our flight arrived 10 am. Emphasis on REQUEST because I know being in the travel industry myslef, it is not always available. I even offered to pay. No. Isis, the front desk agent at the time of my check in said room will be available at 4 p.m. Okay, strike one. Strike 2: curtains in room 1504 have holes. And the bathtub handle bar came loose. No body lotion. Had to run to Walgreens next door to get supplies. Strike 3: We requested late check out. We were given till 1:30 p.m. to check out. We did a tour in the morning, hand lunch in Chinatown, and came back to the hotel at 1 p.m. Well, guess what? When we got back to 15th floor, elevator door open, housekeeping lady was sitting outside the elevator door and said, "I've been waiting for you. Where did you go? I need to go home" I replied we were given until 1:30 pm to check out. She replied, I will wait for you. My partner and I were both stunned by her comment, so we had to hurry packing up and left the room in less than 20 minutes, leaving no tip for her. If I knew then what I know now, we would not have stayed in this hotel. Redeeming factor: bottle of "champagne" upon arrival to celebrate our anniversary. And yes, can't beat the location.
