Historical property. Very unique architecture, but a little dated. Small rooms and small bathrooms. Very clean. Currently going through some renovations, and construction noise started very early while we were there. Good restaurant attached to the property. A little pricey but convenient.

Loved this place - The original decor, history and atmosphere were amazing. Restaurant food was great. Room, and especially the bathroom, were too small. Would spend a little extra and upgrade to the larger room next time. There is a problem with theft in the parking lot, but there was a security guard on duty all the time. Will stay again next time we’re in the area definitely.

Unique being old. We didn’t like the tiny bathroom. We weren’t able to regulate the room Temp very well. But definitely a place that is special!

No outdoor scenery around the hotel or on the street the hotel is located. The street and property lack foliage. The street needs commercial updating and care.
