Room and bathroom was very spacious and comfortable. Easy access to the rooms and very convenient location. Lack of dedicated parking is really the only downside to this hotel.

Charming room. Was too cold at first but I called and they adjusted the heat for me very quickly. The bar had live local music and it was really good.

Not your typical hotel. The room was large, the beds were comfortable. It was relatively quiet. The only problem we had was that my husband got locked out of the building on check out day. You're given a code to use during your stay to get in the building. My husband went out for coffee at 7 and tried the code and was met with 'code expired'. What if we all had gone out? Would we be on the street and our stuff inside? Hoping it v was a glitch.

The room was very clean and beautiful. The whole hotel was charming with a lot of character. Parking across the street wasn't bad. I wish they would have had a parking lot. Very convenient location.

We love old homes and enjoyed the historic feel of the Oliver Inn. Parking in the ramp directly across the street was very convenient. The room’s coded entry worked out great. Our room was a generous size (the bathroom too!) and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and had a nice selection of comfortable pillows. The couch was great too! They had a nice iron, ironing board and Nespresso machine. The Inn has a great downtown location- close to campus, downtown dining and shopping. There was a homeless presence very nearby, but as other reviews had stated, there was no problem. There is a nice bar & restaurant downstairs too. The price can’t be beat for the included amenities and great location. We hope to stay again! :)

It was wierd coming to a hotel with no check-in staff or desk. Thankfully my log-in worked. My only real complaints would be that the walls are too thin, in that there was too much outside noise to contend with. Also, better directions with parking.

Property is historic, gorgeous, and has huge potential. Unfortunately it was tough to get past the dirtiness all around us. Upon arrival the rug in our room looked like it could use a good vacuuming, plus there was a wad of hair in the shower drain, as well as red lipstick lip marks on the white duvet and the light fixtures were coated in thick dust. We had four people staying in a double queen for 3 nights and upon arrival there were only 4 bath towels, 1 hand towel, and 5 coffees pods. Things we loved: high ceilings, old charm, the fitness center, walkability/location.
