Did not realize that the bottled water in the room- which is not near the mini bar - nor does it have a sign near water, is $5.00 a bottle. Was just disppointed when recived the charge on account.

This boutique hotel is a combination of Art Deco with Mid-century Modern appointments in the room. It’s like walking into a hotel from the 1920 or 30s expecting a secret door to a speakeasy which actually exists right by the front desk. The room was comfortable with good linens and huge towels in a spacious bathroom. The only negative I could find was low water pressure in the shower, but everything else was exceptional. I will stay at this hotel from now on and enjoy watching the historic district as it is revitalized.

The hotel is really cute with fun decor! Very small hotel. Friendly staff. Walked to restaurants and bars. No window in room was a little weird. Bed was very comfy.
