Nice Hotel and great location

Everything about the hotel was great. Comfortable, clean, great location, within walking distance to the historic district and plenty of restaurants and bars. The only issue we had was regarding our check in. We arrived early, around noon, and were told that our room wasn't ready. We then went to lunch and toured the city. When we came back around 2:00 our room still wasn't ready. However, 5 different people came in while we were waiting and were able to get into their rooms early. I'm not sure what the room cleaning policy is but I would think the front desk attendant would have made an effort to get our room ready. If that was done we would have given the hotel 5 stars.

Maybe there are no better “affordable” options?

The Aronson is in a great location, which is probably its best features. We stayed in a “king studio” room. The room was oddly configured, and laid out, with a single window up high, which gave it a dungeon- like feel. It faced the rooftop HVAC equipment, which made for a very noisy night. Consequently, we did not get a good night’s sleep. The breakfast room and delivery method is unusual at best. We weren’t the only people confused by how it worked. It was strange to be given your breakfast in a box, as though they don’t want you to stay there to eat it.

The staff was lovely and the building and rooms are unique and beautiful. The only negative was that they over scent the rooms. Don't get me wrong, cinnamon is my favorite smell, but it was overpowering, to the point that my eyes stung and I felt like I could taste it. The staff was nice enough to put an air purifier in the room which did remove the smell.

While it had a nice room and is conveniently located it doesn’t feel like a high end hotel because there is no life or energy in the lobby, bar, or sitting areas. Felt like a high end rooming house. The QR code to order continental breakfast is an unnecessary barrier and it arrives in a brown bag and was terrible. Soggy plastic wrapped danish an OJ and ice cold unripe melon. We could have done better at 7-11. They have a coffee area that could easily handle a normal continental breakfast spread where folks help themselves. Their penny wise pound foolishness will be their undoing.

Nice place, with a few minor flaws.

The hotel itself is lovely. It's in an old paper warehouse and they did a wonderful job of making comfortable rooms while retaining the original architecture. My complaint is with how they do breakfast. They have an app in which you can order a few items which they leave in a bag on the counter. It's like they are still operating under covid protocols. They have coffee, but if breakfast is important to you, plan on finding a local restaurant. Parking is easy across the street in their private lot for about 30 dollars a day. Street parking in this part of town is near impossible.
