My stay at the hotel was simply delightful! The rooms were cozy, warm, and inviting, boasting beautiful hardwood floors and antique furniture. The bed was one of the comfiest I've ever slept on, and the view from the balcony was just stunning. However, the dining options left a bit to be desired. The service was super nice and helpful, but there was one staff member who wasn't particularly friendly. The location was excellent, within walking distance to all the historic areas. The facilities were top-notch, especially the very spacious bathroom.

The hotel had very comfortable rooms with lovely furnishings, a fireplace, and a very comfortable bed, but lacked a treadmill or elliptical. The lobby had no coffee for early flight guests. The service was attentive to details and very gracious. The location was great for visiting historic sites and minutes from a metro station. The dining was better on previous visits with sweet biscuits available. The facilities were good with an afternoon restaurant.

Despite booking a room overlooking the river, the noise persisted throughout the day and night. On the bright side, the jacuzzi tub added a touch of luxury to the room.

The service was a bit of a rollercoaster. While some staff members were polite and welcoming, others seemed unfriendly and not entirely helpful. On the positive side, being offered an upgrade and shown the room first was a thoughtful gesture.

I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel. They upgraded us to a suite with a spacious bath and walk-in shower facilities at no extra charge, and the room was large, airy, and beautifully furnished. The cozy vibe with a fireplace was a lovely touch. However, the dining options could have been a bit more varied, and service, while friendly, could have been more attentive in certain aspects like replenishing plates. Nonetheless, the location was fantastic, with easy access to the Historic District and great restaurants nearby.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was amazing, with a lovely private balcony that we enjoyed a lot. It was very clean, and I loved that it had its own outside door. The service was great; the staff was helpful and friendly, providing excellent recommendations for places to eat nearby. The location was perfect for me, especially for visiting the Seaport and the Cruiser Olympia, which were very close. The dining options were basic but satisfactory. Overall, a great value for the price paid through Booking.
