This is a beautiful and historical hotel. Right now there is a lot of construction around the hotel and limited parking affiliated with the hotel. When we showed up, the adjacent parking lot was out of tickets, so we had to find a different lot and it was late. We were tired and the front desk employee gave us a little attitude about the parking.

Room was okay. Very dated. No safe and no small refrigerator. The sheets were clean but older and somewhat discolored. Bathroom was good and room temperature was comfortable. The coffee and muffins in the lobby was a nice touch. There was a lot of construction in the general area of hotel at this time.

The front desk staff just sit and watch customers struggle to get through the door with their luggage. Nobody offered to hold the door open or help with luggage during either of our two stays. As a mother with two kids, it was irritating and disappointing.
