We were blown away by this room and its amenities. I can honestly say that we’ve never stayed in a hotel that was as nice as this one. The room was incredibly spacious, the decor was terrific, the view from the huge windows was awesome and to top it off the bed was incredibly comfortable. We will definitely be back.

We had an amazing stay at The Benjamin. The room was comfortable, and the property has been beautifully renovated with real attention to detail. The bathroom was spacious and spotless, and there were so many thoughtful touches that made our stay feel special. Located right in the heart of town, the location couldn’t be better. We loved it and will definitely be back.

We had an amazing stay here! The hotel was spacious, spotless, and had a beautiful modern design. You can tell they put a lot of thought into every detail. We loved all the little extras, especially the complimentary snacks and the bath bombs. They made the stay feel so welcoming and luxurious.

We stayed in the Jefferson room which faced the street. The room was beautiful with dimmer switches on all of the lighting which is a big deal to me because it shows the attention to detail. The room was very clean, and we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The Nespresso machine was a really nice touch in addition to a Keurig. There is no elevator so just be aware if you have trouble with heavy luggage going up a flight of steps.

I can not say enough about the level of thought that went into the design and maintenance of this boutique hotel! Customer service was exemplary, the unit was extremely clean & well equipped, the location couldn't have been better, and the feel of the unit was luxurious yet comfortable. We will definitely be booking again.
