A remodel old hotel, very quaint and a good location. I had a room overlooking the street which usually is not an issue. Evidently the walls are not insulated well, you could hear individual conversations on the street. At 2am when the bars closed it was very noisy. Really needed ear plugs.

Parking was difficult. Getting from the garage to your room was a long walk outside of the hotel. Dog area was for tenants only and not for guests. We were not told this. Had to cross Superior Street to let the dog out. The coffee maker was "tricky" to work. Key pads as well. Overall...not a good experience for us!
