The room was okay. Good bed and fluffy towels, but run down. Outside was dirty. I was overcharged, but told there was nothing they could do. Breakfast was terrible - cold eggs, cold potatoes, empty bacon dish. Very stale donuts and bagels. No one in the kitchen area for the 30 minutes we stayed hoping for fresh food. Will not stay again.

This classic property has been brought back to life with dining option great. The Tavern was nice with lots of TVs for sports. With this nice of an indoor area, I was hoping for more than basic continental breakfast.

Billed for no-show

If you make an appointment and try to cancel before you arrive, they will still bill you for the stay. Go across the street their a much better group of people.

Would have given 5 stars, but the restaurant inside is way too expensive for the quality of food you receive. This is my 2nd or 3rd time staying here, it really is a nice place and I'll stay here again. The rooms are very clean and freshly updated. I'm not a fan of the "barn door" style bathroom doors that hotels are going to
