Kitchen needs better stock

The only downside was the breakfast. They did not have cream or 1/2 & 1/2 for their coffee. Only 2% milk or little packets of powered cream. That was unacceptable!

The best part of this property was Selina. The hotel was good for my day trip to the city. The twin bed was perfect for a quick rest before I had to get going. Selina was very accommodating since I requested an early check-in. We also had fun conversations about family and hobbies during breakfast and while I was waiting for my ride to leave. The hotel was good, but Selina makes the Alexander Inn truly shine.

Loved the old world style but missed the modern conveniences. Beds were not as comfortable as some other hotels and shower was not as nice. Great neighborhood in the center of the city but had to walk to parking garage and pay $38 for one night.
