    Breakfast was amazing. I got the Banker's Breakfast and my husband had to help Mr finish. He got eggs and sausage. Although there was not an ice machine on the 8th floor, the front desk delivered ice to me. This is the first hotel that I stayed...

    The staff was amazing! Accommodating and very helpful. Everyone we interacted with was kind and went above and beyond to see that we had a memorable stay. Cody & Amy were top notch.
  • Sarah

    Loved the art gallery throughout, the historic building—a repurposed 1930s bank with the vault still downstairs, and walkable to many local restaurants, shops and theaters.
  • Peterson

    One of the many great things I enjoy about the property was the view I was able to get from the 14 floor
