The room was reasonably clean but the halls smelled of mildew. The staff as nice as could be but the breakfast was minimal.The location is terrific and the views lovely. All told, despite the limitations I would come again for the central location and the courtesy of the staff.

Room was nice ! Bathroom nice with an extra big shower . I like that they had the old school bottles of shampoo & Con. As well as bar soap. I don't like those dispensers! Plenty of towels & a blow dryer . Hard bed but fine . Soft sheets and ok pillows . There was no iron or board; no fridge . I was surprised with that as those seem pretty basic nowadays . Staff was very nice ;) check in was easy. Parking in back of hotel . Location was everything !!! Safe and walkable to all of downtown . Breakfast was bagels and cereal; coffee and juices . Very lite; nothing hot . Although they had a toaster for bagels . This hotel was worth the $$ . I was doing a one night stay on a road trip. I would def stay again .

Friendly staff, quirky historic hotel in the middle of the historic walking district convenient to food and shops, with limited parking in the back and a deck across the street in the back. Small tvs, no shower doors, and no microwave in room. Breakfast is included with most reservations and continental. Comfortable. Safe. Full of historic charm.

We only stayed one night so didn’t utilize amenities or interact with staff much. Good location, free parking. Grab & go breakfast was appropriately named: fruit, granola bars, yogurt etc. The most memorable thing about this hotel unfortunately was the bed and pillows. Quite possibly the most uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept on. It was like lying on a slab of cement. The pillows were just as bad, cheap foam that felt like stone after two minutes of lying on them. My husband and I agreed it was the worst night of sleep we could remember having. Time for this hotel to do some upgrades!
