The good: the room itself was very clean and comfortable. The upstairs hall was decorated beautifully and everything upstairs looked and smelled clean. You can tell this building is special and once they get done with renovations it’ll be beautiful.
The not so good: I was not made aware ahead of time that there were going to be pretty big renovations happening. The entire main floor was torn up. There were large delivery boxes in front of the steps I needed to get to my room. Also, the description said there would be coffee available. I had to call management to find out where the coffee was because the lobby was under total construction. I was told there was a keurig and mugs just inside the lobby door. When I came down in the morning for coffee, I had to move a some shelves that were in front of the coffee hutch. The keurig was covered in construction dust and I couldn’t find mugs. There was no one on site that I could find to ask for help with any of it so I left early to find a coffee shop.
I love old buildings, and I think the place will be great when it’s done, but not disclosing that there is major remodeling being done and the amenities listed are not available would have been nice to know before booking.
