4/10 Fair

Not much for the price

Hotel room was on the small side and was extremely noisy do to the traffic. Could have had a better location and room for the price. Had to climb two flights of stairs, with luggage, to get to the lobby. Not good.

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing hotel and staff! I was stationed in Lemoore and lived in all around Fresno, Visalia, and Exeter and I can honestly say coming back to visiting and choosing the darling was the best choice! I never knew about it the whole 4 years living here but everything in and around the darling is amazing. Great, beautiful rooms to amazing food in the elderwood.

What a great stay!! Very retro and historical building and area. Very unique hotel with upgraded amenities. Staff is terrific especially Robert at the front desk. I totally recommend this hotel to anyone visiting.
Chris, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Would definitely return

Very clean and in excellent condition for age of the classic building. An oasis on a busy street. High ceilings and fitting retro decor. Wish I had gone up to roof top bar/restaurant. Walked around close downtown. Noisy plumbing expected with vi ntage site but I always bring ear plugs.
