Great location, less crowded area of downtown and cleaner. Well preserved historic hotel homes, very clean, and quiet. Room decor and finishes are luxurious, elegant, and on trend. Easy to find and parking was easy. The continental breakfast pastries and the wine selection were good. We didn't get a chance to try cocktails but would love to next time.

Such a charming retreat steps away from all that downtown has to offer! Walkable to all our favorite spots, we enjoyed the plush, spacious suite and the charming staff at the desk and bar. Comfortable room for sleeping, large bathroom well stocked with towels, a quiet place to sit outside for the afternoon, chess and coffee in the evening, a lovely spread for breakfast—we wanted for nothing! A delightful spot to stay. We will return!

Overall, great stay. Breakfast was excellent - more than continental. Check in was a little clumsy as the ‘front’ desk is actually in a separate bldg and the clerk had to check 3 separate groups in at the same time and then walk us all to our bldgs and rooms. Seems like they need an additional person working the check in area during peak times (this was ~5pm).

This hotel is adorable. Jake at check in was so helpful and got out a map and wrote down restaurants, bars and art galleries that he recommends. It was so helpful and all were great recommendations. Location is perfect for walking too. Our room was beautiful and huge. If there was a drawback, it would be that our room was loud. This is to be expected in an old house so it didn’t bother us too much. We were directly above the bar/ restaurant area and you could hear people talking outside our door after getting home late at night. Maybe request one of the other two houses if planning to stay here. Overall, it didn’t bother us and the place was great.

Zelda Dearest felt like a cross between a hotel and a B&B, and we totally enjoyed our stay, Our room was one of the best we have ever experienced (I’m a room snob), and the breakfast was phenomenal (Vege Frittata, chocolate banana bread, blueberry muffins, biscuits and jam, overnight oats, berries, yogurt, OJ). I’ve done both, and I much preferred the self parking over the other hotels’ valet-only option. Depending on where your room is located, there can be a lot of stairs to traverse, same as it would be in a B&B. Staff were friendly and helpful.
