Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Loved our stay! Everything about the room and hotel was clean and comfortable. Only flaw is nowhere to fill a refillable water bottle. I don’t think adding a water bottle filling station near the lobby restrooms would take away from the historic space and could help them be a little more eco friendly. It is 2024

Downtown Gem
What a lovely gem in the heart of Salem. Beautiful decor in the lobby and an amazing front desk staff. There was some work being done that created some annoying noise and triggered a morning fire alarm/evacuation, but that didn't take away from our fun visit. The room was immaculate and very comfortable.

My boyfriend and I came from out of state to visit Salem for the week and we had a very enjoyable time! It was a very pleasant experience, room service was professional. They made our bed and provided fresh towels every day. The only aspect I found weird was the closet shower. I was under the impression that it was a normal sized shower- it was not! But, the room was quite beautiful. Overall 4/5!

Charming but fell short
Hôtel is very charming but our room was less than expected considering this is our second time and unfortunately this room did not mesure up. Shower was not even in the bathroom it was across the hall from bathroom and view of the roof and mechanical equipment was not what I was expecting given I book a deluxe room
