A brief stay, wish I had more time to enjoy. Old style building with updated comfy rooms. Had a corner room so I enjoyed views from 2 directions.

The only suggestion I have is to have some fresh food available for breakfast for those of us who are vegetarian.
The hotel is really unique and attractive.

Beautiful property and very clean, two great staff members and the rest were pretty lazy/unprofessional. This included having hang out sessions in the lobby while drinking all of the guest coffee in the morning (both mornings we stayed) and just staring at guests pour hot cups of nothingness.

Stayed with my son. Originally had a queen room. Found some nasal discharge on the bed. The AC made a horrible continuous noise. We stayed in this room until my son saw a bug jumping on his phone and then we’ve got moved to another queen room. That room the AC was even louder. Started on the sixth floor went to the fourth floor and then they upgraded us to a king room on the third floor. In the original room there was tons of noise from music. We thought it was someone below us. It turns out when we moved to the third floor that there is a club next-door or across the street and that music played till 2:15 in the morning. Tons of motorcycles revving their engine Lots of loud bass coming from someone’s car that rattled the windows on the third floor. The first queen bedroom had no decorative pillows and the bed was so worn it needs to be thrown out. The shower curtain in the queen room touches you even for someone 120 lbs. so a very small space. And there are no AC vents in the bathroom so it stayed hot. In the king room it was much nicer. However we were lower down to the parking lot and the music kept me up until about 3:30 in the morning alongside with the motorcycles and this was a Sunday night, so I’m guessing it’s not a dry town. The water does not get super hot in the queen room, but in the king room it was too hot. Overall, I would never stay here again. I like boutique hotels, and the building was very nice. It’s an old bank, but you stay at a hotel to sleep!!!!!!

Love this hotel but there is a bar right beside it that is extremely loud on Friday and Saturday nights until 1-2am. If a good night’s sleep is needed, may want to look elsewhere. The service, quality, food, and decor are fantastic though!
1.0
The hotel is beautiful and service excellent but there was an outdoor concert a block away and street noise well into the night that made sleeping impossible.
5.0
It was very nice to go to a hotel that is not a chain. The shower and toiletries were very nice. Bedding was high quality. Staff were very welcoming.

I liked the old bank building but would like a bathroom update. Also the included breakfast was very disappointing

We ended up staying here after our connecting flight got cancelled but this hotel really brought the good out of a bad situation. Amazing staff, great restaurant on site, super comfy beds, and nice area to work remotely. It felt more like a fun detour. Not far from the airport and fairly priced, very updated rooms.

Staff was top notch and professional, accommodated a room change request with a smile.

Cutest little hotel! They’ve done a wonderful job converting the older historic building into rooms. Very up-to-date and clean. Front desk personnel were very kind and helpful for anything we needed.
4.0
Great property, average staff, bar next to the hotel could be noisy although it did not bother us.

The inaccessibility of the rooftop on 4th of july should have been disclosed. Breakfest was not wonderful at all. Also coffee was not good.

The gal that checked us in was wonderful.
Friendly, shared what was going on in the area for dining and entertainment and was just simply a very kind person.

I liked it a lot. It didn’t seem very full. I hope it stays around!

Try to get on a floor other than 2 if you are staying over the weekend—the noise from the street and surrounding bars/outside venues lasts until 2am. Other than that, the hotel room is quaint and beautiful. Worked for me!

Summer concert could be seen from window. Lots of music choices within walking distance!

Beautiful, quiet and quaint hotel. Walkable to places to eat. Amazing restaurant downstairs as well. We loved our stay here.

We love the hotel and have stayed several times when in town for business. We actually weren’t able to stay this time due to the air condition in our room being out and there was a leak in the bathroom ceiling. There weren’t any additional rooms for us to move to. The front desk was excellent and gave us our refund and we went home.

I have stayed here in the past. This will be the last time here. Hotel was empty and we mistakenly booked for following day. Common error and have done before with other hotels. Instead of correcting the date or adding a fee for the adjustment or refunding and rebooking for me- no they tell me my money is gone 100%. I ended up being double charged grand total of 340$ for a single night and absolutely not worth that. I don't like businesses that sacrifice service for a chance to double profits off their patrons. Short sighted and definitely not a customer first business model.

First the great: Hayley(sp?) at the hotel bar, in the hotel restaurant, “Barristers”. The bar features some eclectic drinks and your mixologist extraordinaire will manifest with flair; she’s a super competent delight.
The room and the whole place was clean. Really clean.
The restaurant opens at 9:00 a.m. it should sooner. There was a horrible noise in our room and likely others - it sounded like a failing bearing in an air handler. It would/will drive some people insane. A loud screech is the best description. Some guest left takeout trash just out side their room. It was there when we arrived and still there five hours later - and I know for sure that some staff members saw it and ignored it. So a really mixed review.

Super nice hotel with a fabulous restaurant.

Queen bed rooms are extremely small.The town area is very lous That said the room themselves are otherwise nice and I think it's one of the better hotels in the area.
5.0
I booked this hotel with no knowledge of the area. Though it was about 25 mins away from where I was going, the hotel was beautiful,clean and unique (the building was formerly a bank). I would definitely stay here again, everyone was nice and welcoming.

They've done a beautiful job renovating this hotel, as it is historic. However, one elevator was not the best idea. I appreciate that it is historic and loved the location, but gosh the rooms are tiny and hanging my clothes in the coffee caddy wasn't exactly ideal. Bed was very comfortable and at least there was no noise from the nightclub next door.
4.0
It is a lovely hotel, right smack in the creative eating area. It can be noisy on a Saturday night, but fun as well If that’s what interests you. The Restaurant was very good. Staff very attentive and pleasant. Cute place in a restored bank building.
5.0
Very unique historical property. Fabulous restaurant onsite. Comfortable rooms.
5.0
Very clean hotel. Staff was friendly and there is plenty to see and do within walking distance.
