The hotel is so beautiful and I love the heavy wooden feeling of it. It is like an antique store! The decorations are very yellow stone 😻I had a wonderful sleep in the hotel maybe due to the wooden room made me so comfortable.

I expected a grand old historical hotel. The front facade looked historic, but the rooms are in separate buildings that were very small 1950’s motel rooms. They tried to modernize the room, but it still felt ‘50s.
