Great location and cool old building. easy parking in front(or back) of the hotel. Nice bar and restaurant nearby(free drink at the bar and free breakfast at the restaurant).
Just be prepared for LOTS of traffic noise. They provide earplugs in the room. That should give you an indication that it is bad, but we were there on a Saturday nite.

Cute place, friendly staff, and close to what we needed! My boyfriend and I stayed here the night of a concert at The Sylvee so it was nice to be within walking distance. Breakfast was delicious (fresh and not your normal hotel chain breakfast!). Was quiet and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice hotel in well- kept 19th century style.
Several bars and restaurants in same building. Highly recommend if you want a historical experience. Breakfast was adequate but could have been better assorted.

The hotel is unique, historical but updated, and on a block with a few bar/restaurants plus a bar of their own. Our room was clean and spacious (they gave us an upgrade because they weren't fully booked), the bed was comfortable, and the shower pressure was great. I couldn't give the area 5 stars, however, because the hotel is right next to both a busy street and a railroad line which intersect, making it loud-ish from traffic and very loud when the train horn blows! They did thoughtfully provide earplugs, and we really weren't all that bothered by the noise, but we were surprised by it.
Breakfast was provided, a few basic hot foods and an array of cereal, yogurt, fruit, etc. We received drink coupons for happy hour in the bar, but we ended up not using them.

Nice enough. Property needs some upkeep done. Beds were very uncomfortable in room 14. Only received breakfast for 1 day when we stayed for 2. No one at guest services. Had to get keys from bar!

Lovely, intriguing and a bit quirky. Could use a bit of care - minor maintenance. Nice and tasty breakfast in a really nice space. We’d stay again.

Nice but old building. Clean and well maintained. Breakfast was decent. Bar below was quiet after 10 pm but traffic noise was abundant. Sounded like windows were open-they weren’t. I checked! Train came through around midnight with horns blaring. Very conveniently located.

Overall, it was a good hotel. The antique ambiance is fantastic and definitely different from the run-of-the-mill corporate hotel. The location is great - a 10 minute walk to the capital and convention center. There were a couple of things that could have been better -
1. Cleanliness - overall the hotel was clean, but there were several spiders on the ceiling that were not removed even after the room was cleaned. I removed two myself when they crawled over the bed.
2. There is no 24-hour staff. I recall staff being present approximately 8AM-6PM. Other requests had to go through the bartender downstairs.
3. The complementary breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays is at the neighboring cafe, which only started at 8AM (and was not as good as the in-house breakfast, Mondays-Fridays).

Ruby Marie is a lovely, historic hotel. We loved learning the history of the building and the area. The rooms are very updated with charming furnishings and plenty of space. Breakfast in the attached cafe was delicious.
We enjoyed the bar and restaurants nearby. We also had fun walking across the street to the lake and the convention center.

The cafe that served a minimal breakfast could use a good cleaning and make over... I couldn't reach or see in serving dishes as they were on a deli counter and too high! Has potential to be really cute.. loved decor in room, and loved hearing trains!

This was a wonderful, charming hotel. Even the lobby was "old-school, with wood desks, magazines, and a friendly clerk. The room was quaint, in the best way. Lots of wood furniture, the bed was comfortable, even the toilet was re-jiggered to look like an old toilet (the tank was mounted high on the wall, and the flush handle had a pull-chain. So charming! The breakfast was first-rate, and the HVAC was quiet (rare in hotels). I highly recommend.

Very unique hotel…..loved the decor…..antiques and old pictures! Walkable to eateries and convention center.
Had problem with AC…..tried to quick fix it instead of fixing the real problem.
CON…..A lot of street noise and a very loud train that would pass by day and night. Ear plugs provided. Wouldn’t stop me from staying again!
