Would stay again

This hotel is great and very well located. That said, can be noisy and also could benefit from mirrors in the room (they were only available in the bathroom).

Lovely staff, terrible maintenance

This hotel is in a charming location with a very friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are clean and not cookie-cutter. However, the behind-the-scenes care of the room was utterly terrible. The shower temperature controls were broken, so it was a scalding hot shower or nothing. When we reported this to the staff, we learned that the engineer knew about the problem and was awaiting a part. We were offered a new room but it would have been smaller. Instead, they turned down the setting inside the valve and left it at lukewarm. The bed was made with a flat sheet over the mattress, not even tucked in, and then a duvet, and then a top sheet OVER the duvet. It boggles the mind. To make matters worse, though we left the room from 10-3, no one made up the room at all between nights. The TV remote had no batteries. They provided new ones, but then the TV didn’t play any channels or work with casting from our phones, which the screen said you could do. There are no mirrors except in the bathroom. There is no vent in the bathroom, so the scalding showers filled the whole room with steam. There were a million safety features on the ceiling that blinked all night like an airport runway. Some kind of elevator or door or dumbwaiter, which sounded like a garage door rattling, open and closed from the early morning on. For the nearly $500/night we paid (including taxes) this was a very disappointing experience. I can’t recommend staying there. Again, the front of house staff was lovely.

Mixed experience

It was a mixed experience. The hotel was designed beautifully and the room was comfortable. But there weren’t any tissues (just a few rouge ones stuffed on top of an empty box) and more importantly, none of the outlets worked except those in the bathroom. It would have really inconvenienced us if we hadn’t noticed and our phones died in the morning before the alarm went off. The location can’t be beat though. For 400+ a night though, I’d expect working outlets.

Great hotel that focused more on its restaurant than its hotel. It was an accumulation of customer service experiences that were unfortunate but The most disheartening thing was when I needed help with an issue in my room, the female I went to for assistance said “I’m the restaurant manager, I don’t deal with the hotel side of things” and turned her back to me until I said something then she told the young girl (who ruined the first impression experience for me upon check in) to help me. This is the same young girl whom I addressed my issue an hour before and the day before without resolution. When I asked another young lady at “the podium” which was Check in for the restaurant and I learned was also the hotel checkin “do you have any area maps” she said “ that doesn’t match the vibe of the hotel” and directed me to walk outside the hotel down the street three blocks, and I just zoned out from there. Sigh, could’ve been so much better with customer service..the room could’ve had area maps, a hotel guide book, offer of assistance with bags up stairs if your room was on the 4th floor, and instructed us to go to the stairs past the outside deck if you were on the 4th floor. The only stairs we saw after getting the elevator went down! No signs to help guide us! These are all simple fixes and the reason I’m complaining is because it’s a great location, the room was beautiful and it could be awesome. Last thing however was our towels were very thin and small and “worn.

The location is great, the restaurant and bar are excellent. We had the King room facing the Main Street. Expedia lists it as soundproof- it’s not. A service truck parked under the largest window on Thursday at 11:40pm and ran its engine for 35min and the garbage trucks made their rounds at 1am. The windows are pretty but old and single pane so impossible to soundproof. Having stayed in boutique hotels in nyc I take the sound into consideration. Expedia should change that claim. The second night our heat didn’t work. It was 18 degrees outside and although the thermostat said 62 our phone temp said 42. The night staff brought 3 thin cotton blankets. We used a robe and towels to add more cover. The hot water in the shower lasted 2minutee. When I talked to the manager in the morning he dismissed it as something he heard that our thermostat wouldn’t heat up beyond 67 and he told the night staff to offer free brunch - which they didn’t. When he checked the main system he saw the problem, came to the room and checked the thermostat, realized how cold it was and just said sorry and left quickly. The next morning it turned off again but we checked out. There wasn’t any housekeeping and only one robe. This room was an upgrade and Iwe felt like a nights credit would have been appropriate for losing a nights sleep. The hotel is pretty and the location is great. I wish this wasn’t our experience.

Look elsewhere for luxury and amenities

Bathroom privacy screen broken. Bathroom window looks directly onto windows next door. Bathroom drinking cup broken (ceramic cup with hole in it). TV did not work (3 remotes, no channels available). Shower had luke warm water. No 'hot' water available? No hotel lobby - check-in is at the bar/front of the house.
