We booked the hotel for 2 nights but didn’t stay more than an hour. During that stretch, we discovered that the bathroom shower and floor had not been fully cleaned to our expectations and then the smoke detector triggered. This led to a visit from the maintenance personnel. They determined it was bad batteries and replaced them. 5 minutes after they left, the alarm started sounding once again. That was our breaking point and we advised the staff we were departing. They were very concerned and wanted to help, but we lost faith that we could secure a good night’s rest. On a different day or trip, I would be willing to try this hotel again. It was a nice staff and a nice location, it was just a poor showing on this occasion.

Very nice older hotel seated right next to the state Capitol. Could use a bit of a paint refresh, but other than that is great! The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was very roomy and comfortable.

The suite rooms were nice- but a bit pricey. Beds were comfortable, sitting areas very nice and well equipped. Biggest complaint was the first floor bar was a joke, a missed opportunity. House keeping missed our room- but mistakes happen.
