The Cordova Inn was a nice place to stay. The only negative comment I have is that there is not an elevator and I was on the third floor. It was pretty cold the weekend we stayed and there was not heat in the room.

The property has the potential to be lovely but needs a lot of TLC. The room we were in was on the 3rd floor and very run down. Paint chipping off the walls. Shower was very unpredictable. Our TV did not work and when I reported the issue to the front desk the reply was “oh I never watch TV so I don’t know anything about that” then she offered to get maintenance in the next day ( it was 10 am when I reported it). The bar seemed nice but we did not use it as it was very small and not enough seating. Hopefully they will get it together as it is a beautiful building in a great location.

Here is a maximum-impact, tightly compressed version that keeps every single issue while removing repetition, filler, and soft language. It reads clean, controlled, and devastating without exaggeration. --- I rarely leave negative reviews, but this was one of the worst hotel stays I have ever experienced. The issues here are systemic, not isolated. The $33 per night resort fee is unjustifiable. It includes internet and parking, yet the parking is two blocks away, which is unsafe and highly inconvenient at night. The fee does not include housekeeping. Guests are required to place towels and trash outside the room for exchange, but rooms are not cleaned. Staff gave conflicting explanations about this, with one attendant stating room cleaning was included if requested and another later denying that. No one could clearly explain why an additional nightly fee is charged for services that should be standard. Staff knowledge and accountability were inconsistent. One desk attendant repeatedly deferred responsibility by saying the owner or manager made the decision without being able to explain policies or resolve issues. In contrast, Ariel at the front desk demonstrated genuine hospitality and competence. She was attentive, kind, and accommodating, and was the only staff member who effectively helped resolve problems when rooms had to be changed after a bed broke. Room conditions were unacceptable. One bed frame broke entirely. Both rooms had severely dented mattresses that cau

Cute idea to stay in an old hotel. Have done it before with great results at other destinations. First, parked just outside when arriving and asked the counter clerk is it O.K. to park there, pointing out our car, while we check in and then go find the parking garage down the street? Told it's fine and then got a ticket the next second. $55.00 worth as it was a private parking lot adjacent to the hotel. Bad signage. Great trap for the lot owner! Room had no counter space, a very wet bathroom floor due to the sparse shower curtain that did not go all the way around a clawfoot tub. The tub was peeling badly from old paint or sealant? Would not dare to step inside that! Lots of gross hairs all over, including the fridge? Very, very dusty room from furniture legs to the chair rails. At a quick glance, it looked quaint, but you didn't want to look closer. Old, almost used up toilet paper roll welcomed us into the room. Broken toilet seat. I understand they're adding on rooms. Hopefully they will refurnish the existing ones as the location was very nice. Staff was gracious getting us stuff that was missing when we arrived, soap, sugar and creamer for the coffee maker and swapping towels out for fresh ones the next day. They had a nice front porch to sit on as well.

Great location, very cool front porch area and a nice overall stay. Downside was the noise at night, a few minor issues with the room. But a good value for what you get.

The staff was amazing and very friendly especially the bartender. There were some ants in the room, the ceiling fan didn’t work, and a nail that was exposed in the threshold from the bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite those issues though. The potential for greatness is so close and I think the focus is on the new part of the hotel being built, so hopefully they’ll focus back when it’s completed and we can’t wait to see the new building of the hotel.
