Fantastic older/historic property. This is not a property for people with mobility issues. Narrow corridors, step in old cast iron claw foot tub for shower (that I lovvvved) this is a true historic hotel that is like stepping into the past. I loved everything about it. But if your inconvenienced by older styles of design, then leave this one for those of us that appreciate it

The room was adorable, clean, and comfy. The hotel has great history and old pictures are everywhere. It’s like a museum. The elevator was a kick! I felt like I stepped back in time. The staff was friendly and courteous. Petting Skittles was an added bonus. I will definitely be staying there again!

Very clean and love the vintage aesthetic and the old elevator. The front desk receptionist is also very kind and helpful. The house cat definitely elevated our experience even more. She's a sweetheart. The breakfast provided at the Cornel hotel was also nice. We enjoyed the medieval theme of the breakfast ambiance. Definitely would consider staying again for another staycation. Only thing I wished was that it was advertised better that the bathroom was communal. For the price we paid, I was assuming the toilet and shower would at least be in the room. Overall, we loved the aesthetic and would consider staying here again if the price was a little more affordable.
