Our room was lovely but faced King Street. Noise from the street, especially music from the oyster bar across the street, was excessive. Hotel staff were very nice but offered nothing to compensate for our inability to sleep and my having to cross the street to bar, at night, and personnaly ask manager to turn the music down.

arking was convenient at $17 for the overnight rate. The hotel is a historic property, so don't expect modern amenities, but it's well-maintained and very clean. I would definitely recommend staying here. The location is fantastic, right on King Street.

The property was charming with a lot of character. Very convenient to all shopping and dining options in the heart of the historic district. Surrounding area, streets were clean and felt safe at night walking to and from hotel. Loved the hour of wine and cheese in the evening and sherry at night! The only negative we had was lobby smelled musty and our first room offered on the first floor right outside of courtyard as well and the carpet in the first room looked dirty and may have been damp. They had a small dehumidifier/air purifier running in the room. We were able to change our room to second floor and had a room with hardwood floors which was much better. Still had somewhat of a musty smell but we bought a candle and that really helped. Overall, we would stay again.
