The area was quiet, the location was quaint and best described by me as a boutique hotel. The staff was amazingly attentive. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend the hotel not only for the accommodations, but also the craft drinks and the restaurant. A+

Very clean and friendly people. Don’t understand why you would have to pay them to park your vehicle in their parking lot. Other than that it was great.

The hotel is beautiful! Great areas for photos. The Siren Social Club in located in the lobby, great drinks.
The only downside is the WiFi didn’t work which caused no TV access 😬
