The Brown Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Our room was spacious and clean. The toilet in the bathroom was really low so if you had knee replacements I would ask about that. The bartender is super knowledgeable about his bourbon and really friendly. Fun to watch him mix drinks, he's like a wizard! We had dinner in one night and that was fabulous! Great wine, fabulous salmon and my husband had the flatiron steak, he loved it. The bourbon seasoned fries were good with that steak as well. Our server was really nice. Everyone is super friendly there. It was our second time and we will be back again!"
