Parking in the garage next door was easy, front desk and all staff helpful and super friendly! Food was good, drinks were great! The hotel is gorgeous and historic, but also super comfortable and clean. Only issue was the really long wait to get a drink at the bar on Saturday night, I understand they were extremely busy and working as hard as possible, but they needed more staff.
