It’s a great place to stay. Since it is located downtown, there is very limited parking in the area. The kitchen that is available for guests is located down a set of stairs leading to the basement. The kitchen is quite large and there are chairs and tables available. The first floor of the rooms is up a staircase from the lobby. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room we stayed in was clean and well taken care of, and was medium size with a lot of space in the closet.

Clean, friendly, great location, historical. Scope out your parking ahead of time. The hotel has I to two spaces. Also backs onto a nightclub, which was very very loud, but I was exhausted, so just put a pillow over my head and slept.

Got a private room and it was great! Great location, price, and amenities. Bars below can be a bit noisy, but some people would like being close to those activities. Didn’t cause me any trouble on a Saturday night. Very cool history with the place as well
