Everything was wonderful- location great, restaurant great, pool on the small side but nice. All of the staff we encountered were warm and friendly. Unfortunately, during our stay only one poorly working elevator was in service. We were on the 12th floor, so stairs were not a viable option. There were 3 elevators and if all had been working it would have been a great stay.

Unfortunate elevator experience but would go again

The hotel was lovely however there was only 1 elevator working during the entire weekend..not great for a 15 floor hotel! The Manager was lovely and did provide us with a discount The Housekeeping staff was wonderful. This was our first trip to the Historic District. It was a quaint city with LOTS of places to eat and be entertained. Hotel parking is quite expensive. I would recommend street or public parking. Wear comfortable shoes and explore the historic district. We had a GREAT experience!

The people and staff were marbles. Unfortunately, there were 3 elevators and only 2 were functional not to mention it would stop at every floor for some odd reason. The room I was in was having issues with the AC. I called the front desk by the second time they send someone to repair it but it never really cool off. Breakfast could have better options and it would be nice to actually have room service.

This hotel is old and is in desperate need of remodeling. Ac barely works , our room was 80 degrees all night and we had blood smeared on our mirrror in the bathroom. And then to top it off only one elevator working for a full hotel of 15 floors. We did tell the front desk and they are refunding us but it’s a shame this building is in the shape it is.

Desoto Nice Place to Stay

Desoto room was very comfortable with a lot of natural light and good views. Housekeeping could do a better job vacuuming and getting room ready when requested. However the manager when we complained about housekeeping delays was more than understanding and did her best to compensate us for the inconvenience. We would definitely come back here.
