Beautiful hotel! Our room was super clean and spacious. Convenient to restaurants and shopping. Valet service was affordable at $24.00. Love that! Starbucks downstairs was convenient. 5 minute walk to the capital building. Will definitely stay here again in the future! 😊

I would not book this hotel again. It is very old and needs updating of the facilities. The shower was horrible and there was no exhaust fan. Most of our problem was the noise. We had a street facing room and there was some kind of frat party across the street. The windows were vibrating with the music. The party ended around 10, students took the next few hours to leave and then the noise got worse. Around 1:30 am they were cleaning the street and picking up the trash. We got no sleep and the hotel could not move us as they were full.

Great staff, great clean rooms! Parking was not great, but really cool street festival right outside the front of the hotel Saturday mornings! No working ice machine in the entire hotel, and the “vending machine” was a cabinet in the lobby that was locked and no one could find the key. Other than that, very pleasant stay!!!!! Would book again but bring beverages and ice!!!

Good location and fair price for this older and refurbished hotel. The valet service for parking (the only solution) was well run if a bit overpriced. Clean and comfortable room, nice large shower with good hot water and pressure. But the staffing is iffy. No one at the front desk when I arrived and I had to call out for someone to appear. No one in the breakfast area when I arrived and I had to wait 10 minutes for anyone to appear. Coffee was terrible and I was charged a different (higher) price than listed on the menu. (They took off the charge.) Printed sheet said ice was only available from 9 to 5 which was not true though not every ice machine was working. Management needs to pay attention. But the room was quite comfortable and spotless.
