Area was great, close to everything and easy to get there by walking. Pictures were slightly deceiving as it looked more well kept and clean than it actually was. The staff was amazing and the restaurant connected was the best part, amazing food.

An historic building in the heart of town, but is in dire need of renovation. Our room was dated and in need of fresh wallpaper/paint, as were the hallways, which were musty, felt dirty.

The young woman with long hair who works the front desk in the morning is great. I wasn’t impressed with the evening staff. I asked for items I needed and they didn’t send them. When I finally went downstairs they got me the towels and Tp but didn’t speak to me. I felt like I’d disturbed them. Not steller.
