The renovation of the rooms is really impressive—modern, comfortable, and a huge upgrade. You can tell a lot of care went into bringing the Federal Hotel back to life. The restaurant has improved dramatically and deserves special recognition. Manager Tom is personable, professional, and has clearly done an excellent job turning things around. His leadership shows in the overall atmosphere and service. A special shout-out as well to Johnny, who has been our server many times. She is always welcoming, positive, attentive, and exceptionally good at her job. She consistently makes dinner a pleasant experience and is one of the reasons we enjoy coming back. Highly recommended.

Checked in with two HS tea.s but had difficulty checking in with confirmation number established. Luckily had my credit card and funds for 12 rooms. Nice rooms and restaurant.
