This is one of the best hotels, thanks to its excellent location. If you’re seeking a quiet neighborhood with some small shopping options, it’s a perfect choice.
What truly stood out was the exceptional customer service—I had one of the best experiences thanks to an African American gentleman/ receptionist who went above and beyond. His joyful attitude and dedication to his work made a lasting impression.
The only thing to keep in mind is to plan ahead for transportation, as scheduling or allowing extra time for Uber is necessary.

Beautiful, historic building nestled within the sweet little downtown of Hillsborough. Staff was so incredibly friendly, check in was easy, and room service was divine. Beautiful rooms and steps away from locally owned shops.
