“Gothic Luxury”
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay at Des Lux. We loved the huge room, appreciated the dark color scheme, and enjoyed the generous breakfast buffet. The lobby features amusing Halloween decor and there's ample street parking next to the hotel. We'd definitely stay here again!

“Relaxing stay”
We had a lovely weekend here. The rooms were large and clean. We got a massage and the massage therapists were respectful and kind. Overall, a great stay.

“Second Stay.”
We altered our homeward route, and drove an extra 50 miles, just to stay at Des Lux. Our effort was rewarded. The hotel is artfully decorated and the staff personable.

“Great little gem”
This is a really cool little boutique hotel. It’s got personality and the staff is very nice. Great little bar. Clean rooms and holiday theme decorations are fun. Weak b’fast.

“Not your average Holiday Inn”
Fun hotel to stay with great service and big rooms. When I retired I vowed not to stay in typical business hotels anymore, and this one certainly fit the bill.
