While it’s not The Ritz Carlton, it is a very clean and welcoming hotel. The rooms were spotless and cleaned daily. Bathrooms seemed renovated recently. The building had a nice historic feel with a very cool elevator. The employees were very nice and knowledgeable about the area as well. Will definitely stay again if I find myself in the area.

I was looking something unexpensive for only 4-5 hours because my flight was late at night, I found this hotel and it was perfect for I was looking for. It was clean, staff was very nice/friendly. I recommend it for those looking to save some money!

It was pretty cold in the room, and we had to turn on the heater, which worked fine. The mattress was very soft and my husband and I rolled into the middle, preventing each other from sleeping. There are plenty of restaurants around the corner. The receptionist was nice to point where we could go to find a place for dinner.

The rooms are small, beds are terrible and hard. The place felt like a ghost hotel. My room smelled like mold and the ac blew out consistent odor of urine from it. The stairs are old and made a noise when climbing. The elevator that they have is very old. Outside was very sketchy as a lot of homeless people were around.

At the time of my hotel reservation, I’ve read reviews about Baron Hotel and I agree that the hotel is in a good area and it’s a vintage hotel, the bathroom of room 316 was not comfortable as the sink and the toilet tank were so close to each other and each time I had to go side ways I order to jump in the shower. I’ve learned there are several hotels near Baron hotel. Such as Residence Inn by Marriott.

You Get What You Pay For

The property is dated, but my room was clean and well-kept. For one person, the space was appropriate but may be too small for two or more people -- I booked a double. The room still left a lot to be desired -- no refrigerator, no closet, no working wifi. Because I had to work remotely during this trip, I depended on having wifi. I had to spend most of my trip at the local library to get anything done. I noted this issue to staff, hoping they may pursue a solution, but they just told me to keep trying. During my two-night stay, I was not able to successfully connect to the internet using their wifi service. If you decide to book here, also keep in mind that my room did not have a closet or a refrigerator. They have drawers to store folded clothes, but this isn't ideal for those who will be wearing formal attire that doesn't go well folded (like me). Don't plan on bringing any food to your room either -- no fridge. Moreover, the hotel only provides ice when their bar is open, but it was not open during my stay. I couldn't even have cold water. Only stay here if you are low on money, but I personally think paying extra would have been worth the trouble.
