The Mansion on 17th
We stayed two nights, we were in a room that was kind of dark with no window but asked to be moved and they were able to accommodate. It was on the third floor which was kind of difficult to climb. Would recommend that they say that when you book. Overall it was a nice stay.

The 1890 Freeman House
The property was beautiful and clean. The bed was very comfortable. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The room was warm and it was difficult to sleep. We had told someone when we arrived and they turned the air down, but then turned it off at night.
