10:30 on a Friday night and there were people stumbling around drunk all around the property. Booking said free parking, but they do not have parking. When we arrived, I was told we could park in the public parking across the street, which is where all of the club patrons were parking or find a place on the street.
The parking was less than desirable … on the street … limited parking. Ease of unloading belongings … not too much conversation with management about how to, and where to park, and how to get to and from one’s room … would have been helpful. The restaurant and food service were very good and the room was fine. I realize the place is historical but I think you could update some of your e customer service perspective to some of the issues mentioned. End result … I would stay at the Holiday Inn a block away and eat at the Bentley Hotel resstsurant.
If you want breakfast this hotel isn’t for you nor are the hotels close by. Downtown by the hotel was like a ghost town. Granted I was there on a Sunday/monday but alot of buildings boarded up and for sale.
Nice hotel bit parking was an issue. There was no garage, only street parking and a lot across the street. The restaurant was too expensive.

The staff was exceptional, but the property could use some dates. The room seemed to be outdated. The chairs in the room were old and damaged on the seats. The carpet was old looking.

Stupid sign saying no pictures in lobby..no help with luggage at check in or out.
The historic Bentley in downtown Alexandria holds many memories for all who grew up there. Now when I visit Cenla, it is my favorite place to stay. Still maintaining all of the historic beauty that it is famous for.
Beautiful hotel! Bed was so comfortable! The only thing I was uncomfortable with is I felt unsafe, as a single women with a infant, walking into the hotel at night.
