History of The Ford

Meet Susette La Flesche Tibbles

The Susette Suite honors Susette La Flesche Tibbles (1854–1903), a pioneering Native American writer, lecturer, and civil rights advocate from Nebraska. Also known as “Bright Eyes,” she was one of the first Indigenous women to champion Native American land rights on the national stage.

A member of the Omaha tribe and daughter of its last recognized chief, Susette used her voice and pen to fight for justice and cultural preservation. Her legacy lives on in her eloquence, courage, and tireless pursuit of equity.

We didn’t end up staying there. The air conditioning unit was not big enough for the size of room and it was 100+ degrees outside. We found another hotel.

Upscale, clean, and in a great location! The courtyard next door has canopies with tables and live music all summer. We definitely recommend checking this hot spot out. Happy hour is 5 PM to 7 PM.

We were just passing through and found this place online. We were very impressed with our room, the Morton. Very spacious with a comfortable bed, large bathroom, modern decor and a nice view. No front desk to stop at with the code entry, so that was a nice feature. We did go downstairs for supper and a drink. We seated ourselves and were the only ones in the place besides two at the bar. It took quite awhile before we were given menus and had our drink orders taken. After that servic e picked up, as did the crowd. Food was good, but not outstanding.

I had tickets to a concert at the Midwest and decided to make a trip of it and book a room at the Powerhouse. Wow! We started out with cocktails and apps in the restaurant, the four different drinks we tried were all delicious, and all three of our appetizers hit the spot. Service was top notch, and we left very happy. The Ford Suite is so, so nice! A spacious room, with attention to detail and many nods to the history of the building. I sure appreciated the locally made soap in the bathroom, and the keyless entry system was great. The only thing I would like to see improved is the bed pillows. All in all, a perfect visit. Can’t wait to do it again!

We had the opportunity to experience dinner and an overnight stay. My first impression upon walking into the restaurant was that it was warm and welcoming. We were seated right away and were attended to by a friendly and attentive staff. I had the Fish & Chips while my husband had the Santa Fe Chicken. Both meals were nicely presented and cooked to perfection. The Salted Carmel Ice Cream we had for dessert was both unique and tasty. After our meal we went up to our suite, the Ford Room. Our room was beautiful and nicely appointed. It was cozy and comfortable with big windows which provided a nice view. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience offered by the Powerhouse Social and would recommend it not only to travelers but also as a local get-a-way.

Raquel and Ashley were awesome even with challenging customer interactions they deserve raise. And if they don’t give them they cheapasses. Love you Dave… you really do have good staff.
