I like the history and the decor. I did not like that my fireplace did not work as I discovered the plug socket was not working only the morning I was leaving. Breakfast should not be called breakfast it was not what I call breakfast. Plus for awhile the elevators was not working.

My partner's allergies really acted up during our stay. He has an allergy to dust. The desk and night stand had a layer of dust, appearing to have not been wiped down recently. There was also some splatters of something on the wall near the night stand. Cleaniness certainly lacking.

The propert was very nice. The room was large & comfortable. The only negative was the breakfast which was poor. Very nasty Keurig coffee. Packaged instant oats which you ate from a paper cup. Nothing like maple syrup to put on the oats. Freshfruit which was nice. Reasonable muffins. I might have been able to overlook this if the coffee was decent. Went out for breakfast every day.

Very nice room. Everything old though. Drapes and window sheers had holes and blanket was paper thin with holes. Towels were thin and hard. Front desk staff were lovely and friendly they were the only staff we saw. Hotel is old and some wings have musty old smell, but it is one of downtowns older buildings so I guess that’s to be expected. Some upgrades on carpeting, window coverings, bedding and towels would make a big difference.
