Pros +

  • The location was perfect. It was super clean. The beds were very comfortable
  • The hotel's location was excellent. The bathrooms and showers were very clean. I anticipated it would be awful using a common bathroom. It wasn't that bad.
  • Quaint hotel with a great location!

Cons -

  • The room was in the historical section. It smelled, was small, the window looked directly into the side of a building right next to us and you had to be careful not to walk into the bathroom door edge as you got out of bed.
  • We were stuck in the old part of the hotel which didn't have elevators. The hotel also did not have bellmen. This was a huge problem. The hotel also had a lot of dead, stuffed animals. It was awful! rs. I had recently had
  • Not enough staff. Room was not that nice given price. The room above is made so much noise it was difficult to sleep.
