Delightful surprise located in the historic district. Enjoyed the ambiance of the accommodation, it reset our preconceptions about the city. Overjoyed we ventured this way, felt totally safe and welcomed.

Loved the houses and the period decor. The bathroom was very clean. But we thought the dining area could have been cleaner. We saw a lot of dust and the windows were very dirty. I understand it is in the middle of a busy city, but common areas should be clean. The food was also very bland and the same everyday. For the price we thought they could have done better.

It’s a very nice building. Room is big and bed is comfortable. I found it weird that there is no shower curtain in the bathroom. The front desk person is amazing. Didn’t get her name, but I checked in on 7/9. Super personable. I needed ice and she found a bag in the freezer. You can buy an ice maker from Amazon for under $70. The owners should invest in that. Ice is important in this weather. The street is nice. The neighborhood is mid. Kinda dicey and I live in LA…. Not a lot of choices for food or bars nearby but I came because of the Institute of Arts. It’s just down the block.

Checked into hotel in afternoon and then went out and came back around 12:30 pm. At 1:30 am fire alarms went off in our building. After a thorough search by fire department and staff, decided it was false alarm (no one told us this!). After 15 minutes of fire department leaving, fire alarm went off once again. Had to change buildings at 2:15 am and they put us in a room with no Air Conditioning. I will never come here again.

Interesting period property with lovely staff, but quite isolated location and there was a late night party in one of the other rooms. Close to the art gallery but far out of the city, although there is a free streetcar from right outside.
