We had a great stay at this historic old hotel! The staff was super friendly and the hotel retained many original features from the 20's and was very charming! "Breakfast" was not much of anything, but it was a good value even without the breakfast.
Pleasant, clean, old property charm, walkable for dining. Would absolutely stay again.

Beautiful older hotel - well maintained and exceptionally clean. Would highly recommend... just don't expect much for breakfast options (I didn't and that was fine with me). Great launchpoint for Back of the Dragon heading northbound.

Hidden gem. Exceptionally friendly staff, great room, nice restaurant, coffee set up, and it’s a true historic type hotel well done - architects and developers spend a lot to build new as a “boutique” property but this is it and the real deal. 10/10 would recommend.

Staff was great. Mattress was horrible, didn’t get much sleep. We skipped breakfast as it wasn’t what we eat…no protein.
The staff was super helpful and patient and kind. The hotel is beautiful and interesting and enjoyed staying in Downtown Marion where I met the proprietress of the Downtown Re-Sale Boutique and spent a lovely couple of hours visiting with her.
