Hotel Majestic

8/10 Good

"The entrance, lobby and exterior hallways are kept up immaculately. Some of the window coverings could use a little love/cleaning/replacement in the rooms. I stay here once or twice per year. Sometimes for over a week at a time. Love the staff. Wish they served better coffee with real cream. That’s the only bummer. I have to door dash if I want quality coffee in the morning. Otherwise great location. Great people. Always helpful and accommodating."
