The hotel was well appointed and clean. It was in a great location to walk to different shops, restaurants and attractions. I enjoyed a pre dinner swim in the outdoor pool. We had dinner in the hotel’s restaurant and morning coffee/pastries in the hotel cafe. The staff were helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel reminds me of the Monteleone in New Orleans. It is clean and smells fantastic, has an amazing upscale vibe, the bar has a very intimate feel with great seating and swanky drinks. The rooms are comfortable but trendy. I am always surprised by the pricing of this hotel, especially when compared to the larger name hotels with less atmosphere. It absolutely our go to in Mobile, Alabama.

Everything was nice except when I reached in the closet to get the ironing board, the screws that held the holder to the wall were loose and they cut my hand pretty deep. I told the front desk and they just said they would tell maintenance.

The hotel was beautiful but clearly a mold problem throughout. The air conditioning kicking on and off all night honestly sounds like a jet engine. It was so hard to sleep. Around 2am, someone next door to us banged on the door over and over again so loudly and for at least 3 minutes straight. Bang bang bang it was quite scary. I was internally freaking out!! All my children woke up, my husband served in Iraq for several years and it was triggering for him. I know the hotel can’t control that but wow..that was a lot. Throughout the hotel there was this strange stench. It smelled very much like mold. I had to puff my inhaler all night and into the morning. The cafe made up for all that. The woman running it the next morning was very kind and everything tasted delicious!!
