Staff members are wonderful! Kat took us around and told us interesting stories and history about the hotel. Clean rooms. Hot shower!! Relaxing atmosphere. Non drinker found fun at the at attanched pub playing games. Highly recommended if you’re looking to get out of the city!
The place is very charming, tempted to stay another day. Unfortunately, the hotel was closed when we arrived, luckily another guest arrived (the only person staying there that day) and informed us that we need to call the hotel's number. A person came and opened the door and checked us in, and gave us codes to be able to enter the hotel and our room. The bar and restaurant were not open that day and the next. Consequently we left the next day.
The property is located across the street from the Mississippi River, providing scenic views, a walkable environment and interesting history. The guest kitchen needs a serious cleaning, reorganizing and upkeep. It is obvious that it does not get the regular attention the guest rooms do.
Nice remodeling to make it look old. Everything was great with the exception of the trains in the night. But even they weren’t too bad. Had a great stay. Need to get the bridge fix before I can recommend to my friends and neighbors since we are all members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and want to see the Nauvoo Temple. Thanks
This is a great mix of a Bed and Breakfast and Boutique hotel. For a 140 year old building it was nicely laid out and decor while Victorian was clean and fresh. The general manager and staff were fantastic.
We had a great stay! Jason at the front desk was awesome! This is a VERY old building with a lot of history. If only the walls could talk! We were told that we could explore any room with an open door. Each room had a book with notes from previous guests. It was interesting to read the different rooms books. We had a great time.
