Breakfast was horrible. Jimmy Dean egg sausage croissant. Was just going to eat the egg and sausage to get some protein since no warm breakfast was being served. Microwaved it. But into the sausage and something hard got stuck between my teeth. Pulled it out and it was a piece of plastic. Grossed out so didn’t eat that. Made a waffle and it had a metallic taste. I was going backpacking for the weekend and was really looking for to a nutritious breakfast to start my day. Room was ok but no outlets for electronics to plug into and AC was noisy and blanket was very thin so I was cold and didn’t get much sleep. It definitely is an old hotel. Carpet was very old looking. Thank God I remembered my sandals.

Attendee an event that ran late. Nowhere in communication did it say you’d lose your room if you didn’t check in by a certain time. Luckily, we called ahead to notify them and our reservation was flagged, but then was told if we’d arrived 10 minutes later, our room would have been given away. Not sure who was looking for a room at 2 am that they would have given ours away. But it would have been nice to have known that.

Good but not great.

Place was clean. Plumbing was perfect. Rooms don't live up to the pictures and were a bit smaller than expected. TVs are small and old.

No USBs

Historic hotel was clean and comfortable, but a bit too historic. There were no USB outlets of any kind and few electrical outlets which limited the ability to charge various electronic devices.
