Very nice experience staying in a train car. Very clean, great bathroom, comfortable bed, several extra amenities like an umbrella. Font desk was friendly and accommodating. Liked that the fridge actually gets cold & has a freezer that works. Very quiet & dark. Dark was wonderful for sleeping but not really enough light for makeup. Only negatives were no place to really put your luggage and no drawers of any kind but for one night not a big deal. Also, plan to bring chargers & extension cords as there are no charging ports but we were prepared so not a problem for us.

We could not have been happier with our choice of hotels for our trip. From the moment that we walked in I was happy. The high ceiling and openness of the lobby is stunning. The walls are painted deep teal, wood paneling and wood floors that shine like glass. Chandeliers hang everywhere. It’s both romantic and sexy. I adored the restaurant which was smallish and calming. Oysters on the half shell and burgers were to die for. Cocktails were fabulous. Our first encounter with the staff was Kay who treated us like family. She’s a special employee. We did not stay in the train cars but I would love to our next visit. I took many many photos of them. What a unique vision to turn these cars into sleeping accommodations. We will be back soon.
