8/10 Very good

Historic Landmark ahoy.

The staff here is amazing! The hotel is less than 3 minutes from the historic landmarks. Only issue was the shower was broken so water poured about of the bottom while shower was going.

Great hotel in a great location

We had a great stay at this hotel. Unfortunately, only one elevator was working, so that was a bit inconvenient. The staff was all wonderful! Many sights are within walking distance.

Stayed for a conference. Very convenient, staff helpful. However, you have to ask around to tell who is actually working front desk/concierge etc… also the ports for USB in my room did not work
Karla, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Front desk and cleaning services were fantastic. The hostess in the morning was rude and would not make eye contact or communicate with us so we walked out of the restaurant in lobby. Walls were paper thin and could hear everything. No storage in the room. Only one drawer and no other place to put clothes. Overall disappointing experience.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay overall! Would stay again.

We had a great stay at the Renaissance. We came for a concert. We felt like the location was great. Easily accessible to restaurants , coffee etc. Our room was clean and had all the necessities to make our stay comfortable. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful.
