My stay here at the Scarlet Hotel was for three full nights we did have ballet service for the first 24 hours, but as I was coming and going more often, I just parked across the street which is pretty convenient if you’re resourceful I loved the open space around the hotel. They were buildings but it was an architectural marvel. I was on the higher floor so I had a better vantage point. The staff was great and very beautiful every one of them.
We sat in the outside area for drinks at the Wl and Good. Wonderful staff all the way around. We had coffee every morning. I didn’t care for the flavored coffees after the first morning so I just had regular coffee and added my cream and sugar. The rooms were spacious and the only way I knew this is because the outlet hadn’t charged my phone. When I move the table to change to the second outlet, I looked the corner, and there were spiderwebs. It was a little dusty so it could afford to be fully cleaned probably more often than it is done, housekeeping yeah. Other than that, I had a wonderful experience. The aesthetics were pleasing & the staff were very helpful. There are perfectly adequate options for food there but with all of the options elsewhere shouldn’t be a problem DoorDash or Uber if you did not want to eat anything there. Downtown is six minutes away even though “O” street was shut down and it was a little harder to maneuver so 8 minutes if you get lost. Very pleasant stay. Will return.

Extremely rude housekeeper or house keeping manager aggressively knocking on our door and telling us to get out 20 mins BEFORE checkout time plus $20 additional for parking in a crummy lot across the street = we will never be back. Front staff was nice though, very disappointing otherwise.

I booked a deluxe king room, but I failed to see what was deluxe about it. Some of the photos show a bathtub in the bathroom but our room had only a shower. The vent fan didn't work. One of the main reason we stayed here was because of the rooftop bar but upon our arrival we discovered that the bar was booked for a private venue. The only good part of our stay was the staff, they were very friendly. The room was also clean.

The check in was a nightmare and we were told we couldn’t check in when we arrived because we booked on Expedia. Finally when we did check in the new person told us they were sorry and tried to make it right with drink tickets-nevermind that it ruined the rest of the day because our timeline was delayed 3 hours. We didn’t use the drink tickets at all either. We were also told multiple different times of the onsite restaurant hours. When we finally did eat at the restaurant-which was supposed to open at 5-we were not seated until almost 5:20 and there was literally no one in the restaurant. To cap the weekend off, my husband got food poisoning immediately following eating scallops at the restaurant. Upon check out there was no cares given about any of this. I’ve stayed at a lot of hotels in Lincoln over the years, and never have I had such a terrible experience. Never again will I stay here. And such poor professional on the staff and management blaming Expedia for their shortcomings.

Great stay!

Room was very nice and clean. Bed was super comfy. Hotel was quiet and honestly we expected a little noise from all the Husker fans at the hotel (us being part of those fans). Bathroom was huge and the shower was instantly hot. Self parking was super easy. Hotel lobby was decorated with vintage Husker gear and memorabilia. Lots of areas to sit. We got coffee and pastries at the The Good Life the morning we left. Prices were very good and coffee/pastries were yummy. We would definitely stay here again!

It says there is an EV charger onsite, there is not. It is next door and you can only charge for a few hours before it charges you over 20 dollars an hour, and there is no overnight parking. Also there is a 75 dollar pet fee they do not advertise and “get you with” when you check in. Cost is overpriced for what they offer.

This hotel is super clean and the staff were all friendly and attentive. The restaurants and coffee shop in the hotel are incredible. Our room was spotless, the bed was comfortable & the blackout curtains were nice so we could sleep in a bit for once. The room was also very cool which, as hot sleepers, is a major bonus! I will say, the wifi was pretty awful and unfortunately I had to pay for better wifi to be able to join Zoom meetings or even just browse the internet for things to do. So, if you are coming here for work or school be prepared to pay $$$. I also found it strange that housekeeping didn't come and take care of our room. One specific day we were out of the room before 9, came back in the evening, & the room was untouched. Overall, this is a really nice place to stay and a short drive from anything you could want to do in Lincoln.

Room makes weird noises and has a lot of flashing lights. Very hard to sleep in. Charged my credit card multiple times and didn’t change it after complaining. Also they said they have EV charger but they don’t. They poont you to an old EV charger a few blocks away that doesn’t even support NACS.

We enjoyed everything about the property however I booked the reservations because it was advertise as being downtown Lincoln. I was surprised to find out that downtown was still a couple miles away. I take responsibility for not looking more closely however I think it’s misleading to advertise. It is downtown Lincoln

Property was located in a convenient area that made travel easy with or without car.

What I didn’t like was perhaps the lack of cleanliness even after house cleaning has visited the room. Bedsheets were not replaced, but rather, the bed was remade poorly.

Appreciate valet parking. Everything was top notch and clean. The room was comfortable with a large comfy chair to snuggle in. The shower head worked perfectly - important stuff. Wait staff at one of the two restaurants was excellent and so was the food. Felt like we stayed at a 5 star hotel while paying 3 star prices.

This is a beautiful hotel with delightful staff. The restaurant on-site is wonderful!

Parking at this hotel is disappointing. I was there on a Sunday and paid $20 to park in a lot across the street. Afterwartds I realized that I could have left my car parked on the street for free and been closer to the hotel. I had a disabled friend join me for dinner (the restaurant is amazing!), but parking was an issue. There is no handicapped parking outside the hotel. The valet parking attendant indicated that he would park my guest's car for free, but this is not clear when you arrive at the property looking for parking and I am not sure if this is available all the time or just with this particular attendant.

The property is very nice, well appointed, etc... but the reason I will never stay in this hotel again is this: One bag of M&Ms is $5.50.

Perhaps this sounds trivial, but to me, it's outrageous. The rooms are pricey, the food is VERY pricey, parking is pricey. Why in the world must they charge $5.50 for a package of M&Ms? The airport is the only place that I expect to be fleeced like that.

Just leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. Taking advantage of customers at EVERY turn.
