A unique feel to this property. The charm of the former courthouse was felt even with many modern touches. The air conditioning was being repaired in our room and the staff informed us of this upon our check-in and even escorted us to our room to ensure that we were comfortable in our room. Very clean and quiet hotel. The breakfast was delicious. Would definitely return to this property!

Has the potential to be a high end boutique hotel but the manner in which it is run combined with minimal services and amenities suggests it's mid tier at best. Awesome heritage building.

Unfortunately the air conditioning broke down both nights we stayed. The first night they were able to fix it late night and the second night they were unable to fix it. It was a very uncomfortable stay given the heat in the room in the middle of summer.
