I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful and well maintained this property is. It's a classic downtown hotel so it's kind of a maze to get around, but once you've mastered that, it's a fantastic stay! One of the few downtown hotels with a pool, plus the parking was convenient and the cheapest I could find for this area of the city. The restaurant was tasty (especially the raspberry cheesecake!) Service was excellent. Towels were soft and big. Bed was super comfy. I would definitely stay here again!
