A few homeless looking folks sitting around out front across the street (8:30 PM) made us wonder if it was a safe area. We met a fella the next day cleaning up litter who directed us to historic society and offered any kind of info we needed. Very nice host and he was proud of his city. Enjoyed Don Knots statue! Great dinner and drinks across the street. Great Bar tender. Hotel was clean and AC was great! The pillows were great!

I had previously stayed at your location approximately 3 years ago and was excited to stay again. I shared with several of my colleagues how much I enjoyed this unique experience and why we should select this hotel over others. We met first for a business dinner and I had my secretary call to confirm our reservations. Approximately, an hour later we arrived and to my disappointment(and embarrassment) the front desk clerk tried to tell me I didn't have a room--she went so far as to tell me I had canceled it. I explained that I had received confirmations by email and text(through a third part) and also had my secretary call to confirm. She continued to insist that I was incorrect and I began pulling up my emails with confirmation numbers and she still didn't budge. She suggested I pay for another room to resolve this issue and take it up with the third party. I work with colleagues from all over the state and my board chair was actually with us so this added to the embarrassment. I knew that something did not seem right. We were approximately 30 minutes into this scenario. I was almost ready to pay for the rooms when I found a number to call and the person confirmed that I did have a room. I put them on speakerphone and within minutes the clerk had "resolved" the issue. I was shocked. She apologized and gave my colleague an upgrade. At this point, it was hard to enjoy the hotel. Also, my room had a damaged toilet seat(the entire seat was cracked). In closing, I think you understand why a stay that was so anticipated went so wrong.

We had a wonderful stay and I appreciated how promptly the valet retrieved my vehicle. The only down side was not having early breakfast available on the weekend.

We stayed here because of the location and funky vibe. We live hotels that utilize an existing old building. We also loved the eco-friendly touches, right down to the recyclable key card. We also live to peruse the art.
