I had a funeral in Mt Holly & drove from Wilson, so I was going to stay in the chain hotel, until I saw this historic place in "oldtowne" Gastonia.. Fantastic historic property, easy to get to from 85, parking on premises ( YAY!) The place was beautifully restored & the room was just stunning. SO CLEAN! Check in with Meagan was BRILLIANT. I have stayed all over the world & I can tell you she was one of the most amazing hosts I have ever met. Friendly, super helpful ( check-in, internet issues, thermostat instructions, Parking , etc. ) patient, & utterly charming. The 4th floor room had an astounding view of the Holiday-decorated street! COFFEE!!! The bed was absolutely delicious & ditto on the pillows & linens. Didn't stay for breakfast because I had to leave early, but the dining area was gorgeous. Even the halls & elevators were beautiful. Parking was right next to the building, each spot was marked "reserved" & it felt quite safe. This hotel is very much like the historic Alex Johnson in Rapid City & the historic Town Hall In in Lead, SD. If you are in the area I HIGHLY recommend staying here!!!

The location is amazing and the fact that the building is a historical landmark makes it even better. The entire staff is kind,helpful, knowledgeable. I want to especially highlight Zayda at the front desk: From check in until check out she was fantastic. She is extraordinary because it’s tough finding people now days that work hospitality and or customer service that are friendly,knowledgeable about not only their company but surrounding areas to suggest those new to the area to heighten their trip experience,as well as the fact she gos above and beyond. Her attention to detail is unmatched and I think she deserves a raise. I witnessed other hotel goers take time to appreciate her presence and efforts. I wanted to do the same. Thanks for everything! I continue to come back because of experiences like these.

This is a great old boutique hotel in a building with a lot of history. The rooms are thus very small, but lavishly appointed, and you do feel like you're walking back in time (but with modern plumbing!). It's easy to get back to Charlotte from here, I would stay here for fun. Wish there'd been time to try the restaurant and bar.

The property was in a good location in Downtown Gastonia. Very clean. There was a bar and restaurant, and another eatery on the property. The roof was a great place to go with a drink and/or a snack. It was set up with tables and chairs and comfy couches.

The bed was perfect. The room was small but had everything I needed. The shower was a little small; there wasn't much room to turn around comfortably without touching the shower curtain. My meal at the restaurant was great and I lovedthe atmosphere.
