The staff was very friendly at the hotel. Valet was attentive and Becky at the help desk was very knowledgeable . The public areas, the pool (to include the pool bar) were very nice. The rooms could use some updating. The latch on our balcony door was broken. The room was a let down in terms of cleanliness. Otherwise, nice stay.

Beautiful location with plenty of walkable dining options. Staff were excellent. The room was comfortable; however, there was no mini fridge in the room, and the ice machine on our floor was out of service. Those were our ONLY two complaints. It is a beautiful historic building that feels very special. Highly recommend the DeSoto.

Loved the property and I will return. Would have given a 5 start but two small areas of attention to detail. #1 The hallway on the 3rd floor was dimly lit. Just didn’t feel safe, very uncommon and should be adjusted immediately. I’m thinking this is a cost savings measure. #2 Room 318 was a little weird because the room door actually swung “out” into the hallway. So odd and upon observation it was the only room door I could see that operated that way. The room was great inside, but the door gave me janitor closet vibes.
