Linden Row Inn

8/10 Good
"A nice old hotel with a lot of charm. We have only two complaints. One is that the front desk was often unmanned, including when we arrived to check in - it took a while to find someone to check us in. The other is that the hotel did not offer breakfast and breakfast options in the neighborhood are limited."

10/10 Excellent
"Really enjoyed our weekend at the Jefferson leaving the hotel only once. Got massages, a pedicure, swam and relaxed in the salt water pool and outdoor deck and ate all our meals at their Lemaire restaurant. The hotel is beautiful with quite a history. Our room was very spacious with spacious bathroom as well. The staff were uniformly so pleasant and helpful. There is outdoor parking lot right next to the hotel (valet or self) for a fee. Highly recommend for an upscale hotel experience."
