Enjoyed Our Stay

This historic hotel was within walking distance to restaurants and other areas of interest. Though we did not experience any spirits, we liked the fact that it had a history of being haunted. We enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful historic building with modern amenities

Beautiful hotel. I wish I’d had more time to enjoy it, but I was just passing through. Thank you to Kathy for staying to let me check in late after a very long travel day. The A/C was a bit weak, but to be expected in a historic building. It managed to get the room to 73.

Nostalgic Inn.....NO-Stay-ic Again!

Pros first....An 1860's Inn, lots of historical value; staff was very nice; bed was comfortable; nostalgic; great location; beautiful area of Mobile. Cons.....I am sure some of the main rooms are nice, mine on the 3rd floor...not so much, imagine if a thrift store rented you a room, that's the look and musty smell you would get; elevator does not work and never will, been broken forever, if you can't climb stairs-stay away; my room had a portable air conditioner (July), poorly vented to the outside, blew hot air inside the room, room never cooled, who can sleep in a HOT room?; gave someone a key to my room that they tried to access at midnight, I would imagine that they double booked, never addressed with me; will not return calls or emails if you have an issue with your reservation or need to cancel, etc. So.....YES it is a beautiful property; NO I will not stay again.

In our room, there was a "humming" noise in the bathroom 24/7 that you could only drown out with the television. The main thing was the elevator being broke down. They need to make it perfectly clear on their website about this. It's not like it just happened either. We found a review from February mentioning it. This tells me that they are not working on fixing it. Us, along with several other guests that we talked with during our stay, would not have stayed there. The staff were ALL friendly and helpful, especially Brian! He helped us carry our luggage up to our room. The rooms were clean but the clutter in the area going out the back gate needs to be removed as well as the parking area needs some attention to clean up. Would we go back, yes. Only because of the location and people. We would also stay in one of the "original" rooms with a balcony. We also would travel lighter knowing the elevators status.

It obvious that they want a certain type of person here. The owner was rude and nasty. Kicked us out and told us the roach motel down the road is perfect for us. Then a guest was concerned about us and he told the guest we was basically nobody. Kicked us out in the middle of the night because we told him we needed something to clean up some mess in the middle of the floor that WE DIDNT MAKE. Accused us of lying and HE kicked us out the nice room and put us in a dirty one. Black folks good enough to clean up your hotel but not enough to stay there. Thanks for ruining my special needs childrens night and mine too.
