Excellent staff, surprisingly large room, quiet even though a restaurant below our window, didn’t hear anything. Loved the Streaming options on the tv’s.
This was a very unique adorable hotel. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food at the restaurant was excellent and the pool and hot tub area were clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Staff & service
It seems like it is in the process of remodeling. Has great potential. Breakfast was great. Room cleanliness could have been better. Overall, would stay again.
This hotel is phenomenal! I love the decor, the size of the rooms, the team and the amazing plants. I would’ve liked to have some space to put our shaving and make up kits by the sink, but there’s no space. In addition there is no closet to hang anything up. I would love to see some better toilet paper as well.
Room was great. Check in a as okay but couldn't pay with a different card than I used to reserve the room. Added an additional $100 charge to yhat card and still wanted the other card on file for incidentals. But my biggest complaint was breakfast by 8 am there was nothing left but half a biscut dried out potatoes and overcooked eggs.
Highly recommend this property. The staff was extremely accommodating and courteous. It was clean and the on-site restaurant offered great food and excellent, knowledgeable staff.
First the staff......very accommodating, attentive and warm. The hotel is renovated and quite impressive. Breakfast was great!
Then....my recommendations-
My husband and i stayed in an accessible room that was not so accessible. The room was very clean, beautiful and well appointed. But the big beautiful bathroom needed some changes to be truly accessible. I wrote these down and left my suggestions for the management.

Liked: Cleanliness
Restaurant food was good.
No towel rack, clothes closet, chair for desk. Sliding glass door to the public deck was difficult to slide and one door lock didn’t work. Manager was slow to investigate door problem, and a clerk 2 days later told maintenance about the problem.
Disappointed on first sight that it was not an historic(meaning old) building. However the story of its renovation by Carpenter and Gutierrez is interesting and commendable. Restaurant menu sounds amazing but we were not hungry after sitting in the car all day.
