The staff was phenomenal, from Lauri at the front desk and the beginning of our stay, the waitstaff, especially our waitress in the Tavern Thursday evening, as well as all the staff on the floor areas were assets to this company. You felt safe, comfortable and like you were with friends. The building had beautiful decor, the parking was an extra bonus. An A⁺ scoring.

The hotel waa beautiful, loved the history the hotel has. The location was great, I didnt have to move my car till the day we left because everything was so close, which was awesome. I would definitely recommend this hotel. The only thing that sucked was not having a little fridge to keep atleast drinks in. But aside from that it was geeat. Highly recommend
