Loved the asthetic of the property. Old but very clean and beautifly done. Beds were very comfy. The room was a very good size and the bathroom was huge. Close walking distance to restaurants and a very nice stroll during the day to see some beautiful homes. We would definitely stay again.

We checked out a day early because the property was very old, musty, and there are drug addicts in front of the hotel who harass the guests. The staff who work the front of the hotel such as doorman and person who watches the door does absolutely nothing. They didn’t even open the door for us when we checked in. They’re just on their phone.
