Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great location, friendly staff, comfortable overnight stay in the heart of downtown. Continental breakfast had a good selection of snack items (granola bars, fruit, muffins, croissants, etc) and beverages. It’s unique with the history of the building, which I appreciated and enjoyed looking at the archival photos, but not for guests who want a modern room.

Staff member Ethan Kirby was great with assisting us. Room was okay but surely was not of Boutique Hotel standards.Renovations are needed. This hotel is in a very good location for visiting spots. I must say breakfast is poor. Yogurt, muffin, apples, bananas, and coffee is not even what we would consider a continental breakfast. This hotel desperately needs updating.

Located downtown. Close to everything. Nice big room and very comfortable. Liked the imitation fireplace. Our room had black mold in the bathroom. Mentioned to staff at checkout and was told they would notify housekeeping. Our room had 3 big support pools two on either side of the bed and one in the bathroom 6hat we needed to navigate around. They block the view of the telly. Nice big jetted tub
