There was much to love about The Blackwell! First, we love that they offered valet parking. Parking was going to be tricky for us. Second, great restaurants are just in walking distance. And third, the hotel is very beautiful. The only thing that really bothered me was the room was not as clean as I expected it to be. We noticed a bunch of old crumbs when we first walked in the room. It was almost $300 for a one night stay. With a price like that I expected it to be very clean but it wasn’t. That was one of the main reasons we booked here because we always check reviews regarding cleanliness/ former bed bug reports/ etc. We would absolutely stay here again, though! There was a lot to love.

This was a lovely place to stay! We had a converted conference room and it was stellar. The only thing I have negative to say is that the night we arrived, we had 15 minutes to order food. We did but it took a long time to get and we pucked it up. When he handed us the food, it was ice cold Not sure how it came directly from the kitchen and it was cold. However, the brunch was amazing from the other restaurant.

The hotel was wonderful, however the breakfast at the restaurant did not live up to the hotel, buffet was warm not hot and the eggs tasted as they weren't real eggs, hashbrowns were watery. It was ok to say the best very disappointing.

Close to our destination. High priced. Checking was great. Check out was great. Valet his the curb in my new Tahoe and took a chunk out of our black rims. Said something about it and I was told there was not anyone to talk to about this until Monday. If your valet cannot drive a large vehicle stay out of them.
