The hotel was in a great location - it was near the venue of my brother's celebration of life. It was clean and the staff was helpful. It's also a historical hotel.

Great, old building that has been transformed into a very nice hotel. Super convenient location to walk to the art museum and Little Italy. The walls are a bit thin, but the rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is fantastic!

I love how they have kept to the historic nature of the building. The room was large and accommodating. It felt very homey and yet had what I needed for business. The staff was lovely and helpful. And love, love, love the 1940s music playing on the first floor.

We found a couple of dead moths. The coffee Maker and cups were not clean to our standards. We could see lip prints on the cups. Also charged $17 to park in the lot…
