Very nice hotel located near restaurants, bars, and ice cream shops. The room was generously sized, the shower was amazing (over head rain shower head from the 10’ ceiling), and the bed was very comfortable. Loved the exposed brick walls. Super friendly and helpful staff.

William United States of America

Very friendly staff that gave suggestions for the area to eat and shop and visit at. We’re able to share the history of the hotel and downtown area

Beth United States of America

Loved the location of this bespoke hotel. Staff easily accommodated our need for a ground floor room. Totally unique experience and we will be retuning!

Jennifer United States of America

very cool vibe,high ceilings,great art,luxurious linens,fantastic location

Regina United States of America

Awesome hotel. The staff are extremely friendly. The rooms are clean and well maintained. This is the perfect stay for couples. My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary trip and plan to go there every year. FYI, this is not a hotel that caters to kids, but that’s what makes it perfect for couples, especially those with kids who just need a romantic night out. The location is walking distance to some great locally owned restaurants, bars and stores. We parked on Friday and never had to drive anywhere until we left.

Jonathan United States of America

From shower to public spaces yo staff, real boutique attention to detail

Mark United States of America

Everything except the temp! Our room was a little warm and regardless what I changed the thermostat to, the temp on the thermostat still said 76°. The room was comfy and cozy but felt the beds (mattress) could have been a little more high end for the price. Or a pillow topper could have been added.

Wendy United States of America

The room was just the right size for me and comfortable. The custom shower was very nice. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is also a bar on site with a good selection of drinks.

William United States of America

The weather was great. So walking by the riverfront was very enjoyable. The evening walk was fun and the food was great.

Dawn United States of America

Very cool place. Nice decor and very clean. Within walking distance of the river and the shops and restaurants.
