In the end we liked being further from old town. It was a relief to be away from the crowds and deanaugh street nearby was so cute
This should not be a part of SLH. The hotel is extremely run down, dirty walls, torn up carpet, broken wood, old paint. There are no amenities. It was shocking upon entry. Its more of an old b&b, not a luxury hotel.

The property is a small boutique hotel that was very clean and comfortable. It was very walkable to the main tourist areas but in a very quiet neighborhood, away from the traffic
It was all very nice, no issues

The staff were great and the location was a 15-20 minute walk through a nice neighborhood to many of the main tourist attractions.
We got put in a lower class room the first night but the hotel was excellent about fixing the situation for the remaining nights and compensating us for the first night.

Very well located with great staff
Amenities are limited - no AC or fans - the rooms were boiling in summer. Also small things like toothbrush kits and body lotion weren’t available in the bathrooms

Spacious rooms decorated very well. Comfortable bed with nice sheets. On the edge of a lively, non-touristy neighborhood. Quiet and elegant.

Excellent breakfast and dinner options.
No lift so required very long and difficult stairs to room. Dining room offers, good breakfast and dinners, but for some reason, the dining room is very dark, making it almost impossible to even read a menu.

Loved the location, the service and the amenities like the bottled water and coffee.
Based on the 8.6 review I thought it would be nicer. The room we had was remodeled but felt dirty and worn.

Excellent customer service, it was in a quiet neighborhood, and an onsite restaurant and bar that were very nice, and the shower with its three different heads was wonderful.
Rooms were smaller than we expected. Overall, an excellent visit.

Lovely hotel in a quiet location was very comfortable & great food
Would have liked a lounge area with sofas to sit on with a drink. There was a dining area & bar but think they could put a few sofas /chairs near bar
