The ambience of the old building was terrific: high ceilings, marble floors. Upgraded to a suite, we enjoyed the espresso machine, large bathroom and dog treats. The only thing we noticed were several stains on the carpet in the living room. Staff was very helpful and restaurant has a good selection of great food.

Hotel is central downtown near shopping and nice restaurants. The Palms Restaurant and sports bar in the hotel have great staff and food. I would request an higher floor next time we stay as there are lots of city sounds at night.
