The hotel is a lovely older one; has been bought by Hilton but maintains its unique elegance. Rooms were comfortable but a little smaller than a typical newer modern room so just a heads up. Still roomy enough but just a little surprised when I saw it. Did not affect enjoyment of the stay. But the little touches each room has, the art and wallpapers give a special feel. Yana at front desk gave above-and-beyond service and we will definitely return. Great staff, comfy beds, great toiletry products, nice bar/restaurant. What’s not to love?

Good old bones, but needs to catch up with deferred maintenance.

The hotel was convenient to the venue, but with a few small details, this could be a wonderful hotel. The in room coffee was crap! The coasters in our room were used and not replaced. Henry’s the restaurant attached to the hotel for your breakfast lunch and dinner was very very disappointing. We paid $110 for three meals that were pretty much un edible. They said they were gonna remove it off of my bill. My husband tried to get a bloody Mary they had no Worcestershire or horseradish available. they use a bloody Mary mix. Asked for a cup of coffee with cream and sugar. They said they could not provide that but they could give me an Americano that had espresso with hot water? Where are they getting the coffee from the $37 fish and chips meal my husband ordered was a huge fillet that was battered heavily and burnt. For $37 they should’ve hand cut fries instead of using frozen waffle cut fries. My beat and goat cheese salad did not have any beets and very little goat cheese, and the lettuce was not even dressed with any kind of oil and vinegar. I ordered a chicken breast with it, which was the only thing that was edible on that plate and they just grilled it and threw it on the plate they didn’t even cut it up and make it presentable. The sandwich the other Member had she said was edible but not worth $30. So at this point I would not recommend this hotel. Very sad because it was very close to the venue we were going to, with upgrades, it would be exceptional

The bed sheets had someomes hair in it when we went to get into bed and the shower did as well. They obviously didn't clean the room before we got there. We also wiped the surfaces with a lysol pipe and they were very dirty. The TV didn't work. They wouldn't redund the money after yelling us They would because they said I booked through a third party.

Great location next to campus and walking distance to foodie outings like Chez Panisse and the Elmwood district. Rooms were small and a little cramped - we found it surprising that the sink was in the bedroom not bathroom with had shower/toilet only.
