Historic Streetcar Inn — 1/5 stars The only positives were the location, the property being gated, and one staff member we interacted with who was kind. Unfortunately, cleanliness was a serious issue. I understand the property is old and has historic charm, but age and charm are not excuses for poor hygiene. The room did not appear to be cleaned at all—it honestly felt like someone came in, changed the sheets, and then walked out. That’s it. The floors were so dirty that we had to wear shoes from the beginning and the toilet was not cleaned at all. There were actual particles still present, to the point that we had to ask staff for a cleaner so we could spray and clean it ourselves, which is completely unacceptable for a hotel stay. The AC unit smelled strongly of mildew and was very dusty, and the fan had a visible dust, which likely explains why my eyes and skin were reacting during the stay. Cleanliness should be the bare minimum for any hotel, regardless of age or character. Because of this, I would not stay here again or recommend it. How can you enjoy a stay when you’re not even comfortable in the room?

Room was clean. Beds were comfortable. Shower was good and hot! My only complaint was the location of our room made it hard for me to sleep. Our room was very close to the reception area. I am a very light sleeper and I had a hard time sleeping with the noise. There was also something dripping onto our window unit (I believe it was the drain from the window unit above us) which also kept me awake. Other than those things I would definitely recommend staying here. Maybe just in a different area if you need absolute silence to sleep.
