Historic building with some modern upgrades. As expected, the room was a bit small and bathroom odd with no door. But a near stay near the theatre was a huge bonus.

I had to be placed in 3 rooms all of which the carpets were filthy room 904, 806 & 505. The complimentary breakfast oatmeal was cold I thought I would get an entire hot meal. The lobby was gorgeous nice & clean but the rooms need to be all upgraded. The website should state that there wasn't a pool available. I will never be back to The Gunter!
