I can confidently say that I will not be making a reservation here ever again. Was given prices & information that was very misleading. During my stay I paid for valet, which to my knowledge is separate from the hotel, which I was told by the guy it would be cheaper flat fee which I paid for immediately through the link he sent. Upon checking out the next morning, I call my car from valet & start getting notifs of an attempt to charge my card of a WAY larger amount. This was extremely misleading & I brought it up to a man at the front desk where there was also a woman I didnt meet prior who was now running valet, who was EXTREMELY rude to my friend and I when I mentioned the price the guy told me. She kept making snarky comments about how we could've used street parking & rolling her eyes. She was going to make the front desk employee charge me the "correct" amount upon check out for the valet until she opened whatever app she uses & it showed I had paid for it already... Not only did we have that horrible interaction upon check out, we also had another rude interaction with a lady regarding check out time. We confirmed over the phone days prior to our stay that we got a 12pm check out w 1hr complimentary, she said no & we'd be charged, which we weren't. Hotel is clean, but very outdated. Bathroom fixtures were loose & kept falling. Left the hotel & they are still trying to charge me the ambiguous valet price & additional for who knows what. Shame on them!

It is an historic property so the rooms tend to be bigger and wall thicker so it’s a quieter experience for sure than the more modern hotels. They just don’t have any ice machines on each floor. And the bartender was not really there when they were supposed to be to take advantage of the $30 credit we had. And The halls are not really vacuumed as much as they should be. The coffee was good. But not available for long. The property itself is starting to get a little beat up terms of the fixtures and painting. Good location for walking to Georgetown major issues parking. There is no parking available. We have to find a garage is open 24 seven or street parking and keep feeding a meter.

The hotel was a four star. The rooms were clean but they were also worn in that the carpets were slightly dingy and the furnishings a bit worn. It isn’t something that detracts - but you notice. That being said the location is great. The staff is helpful and communicative and it is a solid book. Would stay there again.

Staff was super friendly. Place was very clean. Great hotel. I would stay again. My door jammed a little bit. 630. Needs some wd40 lol once I thought I was locked in. Also late at night you can't get any ice... or a drink anywhere... or silverware in the building. I also couldn't reheat food. The lady at the desk was nice enough to do it for me but otherwise no access.
