Super charming historic property. Tastefully decorated with period style furnishings. Walking distance to Lake Michigan beaches and parks through a charming historical are. Parking was a bit of a downside. You can park it yourself for $18 per day or have the valet do it for an additional $35 charge.

The property is very charming. Nestled right in a lovely neighborhood and close to the lake. Parking is only $35/day valet or atreet parking. Tons of great restaurants amd coffee ahops within walking distance. Room was spacious. The carpet was in need of a vaccum around the edges. And we thought it was strange there was no fan in the bathroom. Only other downfall was the very small and often times slow elevator. Overall a great property for the price.

We stayed here for a wedding. The hotel was a great place to stay and all of the staff were so friendly and helpful. The front porch was so lovely for sitting out for breakfast or with a drink in the evening. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well decorated.
