Heater was old and out of fear of burning the property down we had to keep the curtains open. The TV was inoperable. There was no staff when we arrived we had to go to another property to get keys. No parking and public parking was $60.

The room was clean and decorated adorably. However there’s an old style gas heater near the window that you do not want anything near so in order to stay warm we had to keep the curtain half open and the window faced other windows that are very close. Also the TV was impossible to watch or connect to. Also with no parking and having to pay $60 in public parking makes this property one of never stay at again. We ended up checking out at 8am.

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!
