From the moment we walked in, we loved it. Unique place with a lot of history. Greeted by staff and had a great interaction. Room is outstanding! Can not believe we snagged this quality of a room, short notice, for a quick date night with a great price! Breakfast was very yummy but was out of the hot foods by 0930 and it wasn’t restocked. Otherwise, it was delicious. We will highly recommend this to others!

We stayed in the two story with loft during Thanksgiving. Traveling with a 10&16 year old - this was perfect! They had their own space and my husband and I had ours after long days walking and shopping. The area is quiet but always felt safe. The staff was great as well.

The hotel is in a great location with plenty of free parking across the street. Staff was great, especially the bartender. The room was clean and comfortable. We have stayed there before but not since the remodel. The hotel has lost so much of its warmth and charm with the modernization. The breakfast area is terriblely inadequate, just not enough tables and space with the sofas there. It's still a very nice hotel but I think many of the changes weren't well thought.out
