The hotel is a wonderful escape within the historic district, offering spacious and elegant rooms that retain the rich history of the property with high ceilings and thick wood beams. Despite a minor oversight by housekeeping, the duplex Prestige Suite provided a unique and comfortable stay, like stepping into another world with inviting lounging areas and self-serve coffee bars. The overly friendly service from the caring and professional staff, such as Ramon and Elias in reception, truly enhanced our experience, although there was no comment on the price or value for money.
