Absolutely top tier hotel in...

Liked: Perfect location in the historic district of downtown McMinnville. Convenient front door arrival and luggage drop off assisted by friendly valet who whisked our bags away to our room while we checked in. Valet parking was offered for $15/night but our valet readily pointed out several nearby parking spots along the street where we would could park for free until checkout time the next morning.We were warmly greeted by the front desk staff with a very nice glass of bubbly and given a quick intro to the room set up and a list of local restaurants (the Cypress Grill was closed that day.) We walked a couple of blocks over to the Bistro Maison for a fabulous meal outdoors on their patio.Our room #14 was beautifully decorated, cozy yet with incredibly tall ceilings making it feel very spacious. There was an electric-controlled fireplace set on visual “ambiance” setting, very comfy bed, spotless bathroom with large walk-in shower, flat screen tv, wine fridge set on 38°, and in-room French press coffee and a tea kettle— however the main lobby has all types of custom-made espresso drinks available on request 24/7!Our ground floor room was separated by a doorway leading down to the “luxury” bunk rooms and was completely quiet.The cafe only offered a continental breakfast the next morning so we walked a couple of blocks over to the Crescent Cafe for a traditional breakfast which was wonderful.
Disliked: I am not sure why so many hotels now do not have exhaust fans in the bathroom, but we seem to encounter this more and more.

Liked: The Atticus was superb from start to finish. The staff was gracious and helpful, and we were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary glass of Oregon sparkling wine offered during check-in. Our room was spacious and thoughtfully appointed, from chilled water in the fridge to local coffee for the press pot. The location was perfect for several strolls along the main street and the surrounding neighborhood, and I also really enjoyed the Thursday farmer's market. We hope to return!
Disliked: There were some throw blankets, but I would have appreciated one full bed-sized blanket in the closet. (I sleep very cold and prefer a blanket to heating the entire room.)
