Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was not clean; there was hair left on the bed spread, the shower curtain had brown stains on it, and it appeared the towels had not been washed. We were supposed to stay in a room on the Olmstead Campus wing but did not end up staying here due to the conditions of the room.

Lovely old building nicely repurposed to be a hotel. Quick check-in and comfortable room. Not a lot of conveniences near by; restaurants, a convenience store or pharmacy.

The staff were wonderful, the rooms were lovely (although there were some very minor issues that were overlooked in the planning, like towel hooks near the shower) and the entrance, hallways, museum are very impressive. The hotel could definitely use either a snack shop or vending machines, as it is situated quite far from any convenience stores. Having said that, we will return again better prepared with some food supplies because it is a beautiful hotel and it is a destination in itself.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The property itself is a nice experience. However, the rooms are so tiny for being as overpriced as they are. No closet, no fridge. Lots of wasted space in the multiple lobby areas that could have been incorporated into the rooms. The shower leaked all over the floor through the poorly sealed glass door. Definitely not worth the price.

Cool restoration of a historic building. Bedding and towels were nicely laundered. Quiet. Restaurant, bar and cafe all closed and only open on weekends. No housekeeping. In room coffee station poorly stocked (one coffee pod during entire stay). No hand soap in bathroom. I expect more for $250 per night.
