The area around it is ok. The stair gates are a real pain for dragging suitcases up and down. Room was small but comfortable. Building interior and exterior are lovely. Super nice to sit outside the Spanish bar. Nice to have food on site. Parking is a pain from 3-6.

Each room and floor was unique. The fireplace area is a vibe. The bars on each floor are just amazing and the staff and security goes out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. The elevator was out when we checked in and was repaired by the following morning. You really need to stay and try a package or stay when there is a show. And wander in your bathrobe. That's my favorite part!

This place was amazing. If you ever wanted to stay at a quirky but absolutely fantastically fun place, this is it. From awesome restaurants, bars, scavenger hunting, ghost stories, and more to hidden passages between halls. I have never spent the night in a more unique place such as this before. And yes, the beds were extremely comfortable. I will definitely be back to this hotel sooner then later.

What an amazing hotel! Built in 1916 as an elks temple. Paintings and chandeliers and several gorgeous bars. Rooms small, but very clean and comfortable. Only complaint: rooms on 6th floor are interior and do not have windows to the outside.

Beautiful, unique property to stay at. Love all the bars and restaurant options within the hotel. Some place everyone should try at least once if you like decor and whimsy and not cookie cutter hotels!
