“My stay at The Depot offered a fascinating blend of history and modern comfort, particularly appreciating the unique character of the suites housed within the original 1899 station. The convenience of on-site parking is a welcome amenity in the city, and the proximity to the Mississippi allows for pleasant explorations of the riverfront and beyond. It's a property that holds its past with grace, making for a distinctly engaging visit.”
