The hotel is beautiful! Great areas for photos. The Siren Social Club in located in the lobby, great drinks. The only downside is the WiFi didn’t work which caused no TV access 😬

The property has potential to be great. Great location. Great accommodations. However, the front desk had no staff. There was an electronic keypad for check in and check out. And there were many issues. Even saw a person in the parking lot who was attempting to check out with a person over the phone. I’m still working thru multiple charges on my card. I hope they can figure things out. It’s got great potential!

Weekend getaway

Staff was super friendly and check in and out was extremely easy. We had the first room in the front next to the door and stairs for the first night was a little loud but calmed down quick. Would recommend a softer close door in the hallway to help. Besides the that room was great and clean. Would definitely stay again for the good price and location.
