I loved the rooms and vibe of the hotel. I loved the history of it. They need to do a better job advertising their beautiful bathrooms! Girls if you like to soak in tubs book here! I only had a few small issues. Check in was a little different and rushed. At first it was fine, staff was still polite, however once the staff left (literally handed me the keys on the way out the door,) there was no staff to man the place. I wanted a stopper for the tub in my room and I couldn't get one. Also the TV was not working. There was literally no one of grounds to even talk to about the small issues. Even when I checked out there was no one. I would stay here again because of the features, affordability, and location but the service was disappointing.

10/10, would love to stay here again
We got to stay in the Hopkins Suite on the third floor. The hotel was absolutely stunning and a short walk to some great restaurants. Very easy to check in and out. Friendly staff. Coffee pods, creamer and sugar were available downstairs for the Keurig in our room. Huge shower/spa in our bathroom and the bed was incredible and so comfortable. Best sleep I've had while traveling.

Loved the hotel! Old Victorian house with tons of charm. Our room was in the back of the house, so it was quiet. Only complaint was the metered street parking. We paid over $5 for two hours this morning, but parking is limited to 5 hours max. Otherwise, you can park down the street in a paid lot. Not sure what their rate was. Otherwise, very charming.

I can't remember the gals name that was so patient with me throughout check-in haha. I was all over the place. Just got off my almost 3hr road trip. They were texting me keeping me updated the whole time. Made sure to give me a kind text while i was on my way home. Don't get me started on the cuteness and spacious room my friend and i had. Omg what a dream! Definitely going to book all my next stays here. 1. Great area 2. Might see a wedding go down 3. Nice quiet rooms for busy city mornings 4. Plenty of mirrors 5. Last but not least GREAT STAFF! <3

Nice place to stay close to the train station.
The room was nice as was the location, but be aware, this is a popular wedding venue and there can be loud music. This one ended a little after 10:00pm so it was good after that.

Locked out of hotel room for hrs/Not safe 4 women
We got locked out of the hotel and then our hotel room! We arrived at 6:30 pm after a flight delay and the lobby door was locked. I called the number and was able to eventually access the lock box and our room key. We entered our room, put down our things and went out to dinner. BIG MISTAKE! We returned and our key wouldn't open the front door. Other guests were stuck outside also. Eventually another guest opened the front door for us from the inside. We went up and were horrified to find out that our key also coudn't open our hotel room door. Other guests were complaining about the same thing. It took about 2 hours to get back into our room. We had to wait on the floor of the hallway, exhausted, for an employee to come and unlock our door. It gets better! A women in a room next to us told us that she had walked in to her hotel room only to find A NAKED STRANGER in her room! Apparently someone broke into the lock box and took one of the keys and let themselves in. SO FRIGHTENING to be a woman traveling alone and find someone in your room. AVOID THIS HOTEL!

Walking distance to restaurants and night life. Parking garage is super close and $15 per night. The hotel was very quiet. The hotel is contactless but for us there was no need to have person to person interaction anyway..checking in was easy. BUT the hotel looks like it needs a lot of updating. It’s an old hotel as it is but there’s alot of areas in the hotel and room that need paint touch ups or have damage to wood due to age or water. It’s not the ritz but it was worth the $215 total for the Hunnington Suite. The hotel looks like it needs to be cleaned (vacuumed ect, the same cocktail drink someone left in the lobby area was there when we checked in at 4 pm and still there when we checked out the next day at 11am. ) So it just seems like there isn’t a staff to clean up after people or maintain. Our room was clean and well maintained. Jacuzzi was a nice end to the night. AC works good. Windows open for a breeze too. No microwave in room but one in the lobby. The sink leaked but didn’t bother me much.
