Our room was very spacious and clean, well stocked, the noise level was low (we were on 4th floor facing front of hotel), and the staff was very friendly. We loved the tall ceilings in our room and historic touches that the hotel has preserved. Also, it is extremely worth it to get valet- I don’t usually add this service, but at this location it just makes sense. We had absolutely no problems or safety concerns walking from our hotel to Aquarium area, but it was a little strange knowing if we walked around the corner from the hotel in the other direction then we would be surrounded by strip clubs- it made our exploration of the surrounding area very limited since we had a child in tow.
