Everything about this hotel is wonderful . Staff was great . We got a room facing Main Street so was loud till about 2am, other than that was decent for price . Thank you

10/10 Exceptional

The property is very nice and the staff welcoming. The bed was comfortable. It IS an historic property so some things are not modern. It has a small fridge and a keurig type coffee pot but no microwave. The bathroom has very little shelf space. Our room faced the main street so there was traffic noise but it was mostly quiet after the businesses closed. The breakfast provided was basically a carb-fest with toast, waffles, muffins, etc so diabetics and keto folks be aware and plan ahead. The coffee was good. It has an elevator but some of the doors and layout is smallish so people with walkers, wheelchairs and service animals be aware. We didnt ask for an accessible room so those are probably better.

Staff was phenomenal. Beds were soft and very comfortable. Heater worked well. Room was clean. Only downside because it is an older building the walls are fairly thin and you can hear louder cars and people out on the street.
