Room size was amazing as I was staying in an accessible room however the shower wasn’t super clean with tire tracks on the shower floor and blood stains on the bed sheets. I was only here for one night so front desk gave me a credit but it’s for use on another visit.

The location is amazing. The downtown area is restored and has great restaurants, cafes and boutiques. Hotel was nice, unfortunately we missed the breakfast, which is supposed to be great… We had to find parking, because of the location. But a garage was not that far away.
