NIce place to stay. Parking though is sort of a mess with valet parking only way it really works. If you don't use valet you are your own as they don't have parking garage one can park in and pay a lower rate than valet parking. This also means one has to wait your turn to get the car which Sunday morning was 20 people deep.

Amazing hotel! Beautiful, old hotel with modern touches and amenities. Wonderful, friendly staff. Great bar and pool table area and while we didn’t use the pool, it looked awesome. Loved the historic items that have been left. The only thing I was mildly disappointed by were the bed sheets. They felt very worn and “pilly”. Bed overall was clean and comfortable, though. And towels were wonderful. Robes and slippers would be a nice touch as the bathroom was chilly. Would absolutely stay again!
