I booked a city view room for me and my partner for one night. Our stay was short but from the time I first booked, til I checked out staff was professional and friendly. Easy check in and check out. As someone who loves original character and charm this hotel was super cute and cozy. Clean, accommodating and welcoming. Will definitely book again next time I’m in town.
