Kelly-Griggs House Museum

How lucky to stay in an 1860’s private home from the “Weinstock Department Store” family on a tree lined street near the capitol, midtown, very safe and 100% walkable. This property is also a wedding venue. Check-in was easy and there was a gal manning the front desk when we arrived at 3pm. Our room 103 was on the reception level near the front desk, snack and eating room with, tables, ice, vending machine, keruig and microwave. There were also some comfortable chairs in reception to read and relax outside your room. There was a big front porch with seating. Also bricked in area with seating that is used by the wedding part of the business. Our room was huge. A queen bed, sitting area by the big windows, a desk, tv and quiet air conditioning. The bathroom was also large but the old jacuzzi tub/shower had seen better days. We had a quiet night and were able to have time in the morning to explore. Note there is no parking included. There is lots of metered parking. Free street parking nearby is 10p-8a, midnight-8am. Secure monitored lots are $30 overnight. Also there is not a person at the front desk 24/7, but just a call away. There is no pool. Do stay here if you are in town.

Très bonne surprise lors d'un séjour aux USA. Pour un prix légèrement plus cher qu'un motel, on a pu bénéficier d'un appartement très bien équipé et calme. Hébergement très bien situé à proximité du Capitole et dans une zone regroupant restaurants, bars et musées. Le petit-déjeuner continental est également proposé et propose beaucoup plus de variété que les classiques américains en s'approchant des standards européens. Franchement, j'espère pouvoir loger dans des hôtels du même type lors de mon prochain voyage outre-atlantique. A noter également que le parking est également possible dans un parking à étage situé à côté de l'hôtel.
