Our Room was tiny. My husband is 6’2” and his feet were hanging off the bed about a foot. There was NO parking available mainly because of the people visiting their bar. So many people from the bar were blocking the hall to the elevators - we couldn’t tell if they were just congregating there or waiting for the elevator.

Best hotel ever

This place is amazing. It never disappoints. It’s southern, it’s luxury, it’s historical and its walking distance to shops and restaurants. The people are extraordinary and you will find reasons to return.
