Almost unbelievable how well this 127-year old hotel property has stood up to all that use! Very well maintained, we did not have any fears about its functionality. Our room had modern furnishings but was very small and doorways were very narrow. Handicapped parking in the rear but it was hard to imagine how someone in a wheelchair could get by -- no elevator. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
