"This hotel was so unique. I would recommend staying here to anyone looking somewhere to stay other than a chain hotel. The restaurant downstairs was amazing as was the service. There’s even a speakeasy if you want to drink. Since there is no staff at night or a little sundry, I would recommend bringing some bottled water and maybe a snack for your room. It was also very quiet which I love! Would highly recommend this hotel. The only problem we had was it took 10 minutes for the water to warm up...
