The only thing I was slightly bummed about was the bar closing before 10pm. Although it was the Eagles playoff game so I understand that aspect, but I love the bar and was looking forward to a night cap. Otherwise it was a very nice quiet stay, I felt very safe even being close off of the first floor. Staff was lovely and it was very clean and accommodating.

The room was beautifully decorated. They need to remodel the dated bathrooms, clean up scuffs on the wall. Clean more thoroughly. The thermostats are seemingly just for show. The room was incredibly hot with no way to adjust the temperature. Charming but would not stay again.
