Only problem was there was only very hot water in the sink and shower. Desk confirmed they were working on it. But made it impossible to shower and uncomfortable to brush teeth in hot water.

Great hotel, poor complimentaries!

Great hotel, nice large comfortable room with spacious bathroom. Breakfast was great, with a good choice. Centrally located hotel, which was super for us as first time visitors to the city. Only questionable issue was the $40 add-on at checkout. When l asked what was that for, was informed it covers the “complimentary” bottles of water given to us and the discount given to us for any in-house food and beverages. How can these be “free” if we are being charged for them?

Stay here! You won’t be disappointed.

Very nice hotel. Clean and comfy. Calvin was perfection at the front desk. Gorgeous view of the statehouse from our room. Near many historical places. The Bosworth had delicious non-Pub flavor to its food selection.
