    The Jefferson provided my wife and I a wonderful stay. The restaurant and bar service were wonderful

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Beautiful hotel and amazing staff! Great location and the Quill bar was exceptional. Only complaints are the size of the bathrooms and lack of bathroom amenities.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Charming hotel and very friendly staff especially during check-in. My one and only complaint is how noisy my stay was. I highly recommend asking for a room far away from the house-keeping closet space because they are constantly in and out and shutting doors at all hours of the day. The doors to the rooms need to be sealed better but I understand it's an older hotel.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    We had a wonderful experience at the Jefferson. We arrived early and our room wasn’t ready yet. However they had a complementary lounge we were able to use while we waited for our room to be ready. We had lunch and drinks while we waited for our room, all complementary. Which was wonderful after a morning of traveling. The room was well maintained and the hotel was beautiful. The staff incredibly helpful and so kind. Looking forward to returning.

    The shade in the room was broken and wouldn't close all the way so I couldn't sleep as the bright light from the office building across the street was shining in my eyes
