It was a lovely hotel. The room was generously sized. It was clean and the staff was courteous and helpful. The restaurant was excellent for breakfast. The only thing that could be a concern for some guests is that noisy heating/air conditioning in room. It didn’t bother me but some guests might find it annoying. I strongly recommend this hotel.

The service at the restaurant is a joke. Delivered my main meal at the same time as my salad and then waited 10 minutes for my cocktail. Never again.

The room was clean, quiet, comfortable, and simple. The front desk was kind and helpful. I didn’t realize I was required to use the valet and the fee of $37 each day. It was hard to find good places to eat nearby. It was rather pricey for the experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Everyone was exceptionally kind, from the valet to the cook. The food was delicious; I particularly savored the shrimp and grits, and the chicken wings were simply irresistible. I also had a classic coffee martini and an old-fashioned, both of which were expertly prepared. The bartender was outstanding, and the front desk staff were both friendly and professional. The valet service was impeccable, providing helpful information to enhance my stay. I am very much looking forward to returning.
