I was surprised at how luxurious this hotel is. The rainfall shower head was just outstanding and the rooms have all of this custom wood craftsmanship. I was sort of expecting it to be a renovated courtyard by marriot just named something different and priced higher. But it’s very very nice. Unique in a way. Definitely the nicest hotel in Fredericksburg.

This is the second time we have stayed here overnight. The check in process is difficult. Thr staff is not very personable or friendly. You cant park in the parking lot unless you use valet. Im aorry but i dont care to have a young kid try and drive my 6 speed manual porsche and run it up on the concrete curb. The bar deinks are unbalanced and rhe bartenders are very subdued. The cocktails on the menu use cheap liquor. I honestly expected a lot more from a place charging almost $400 a night.
