The location was the best part as the hotel is literally in walking distance to almost everything. Overall the stay was decent but there was mold in my initial room which caused me to get very sick. They did offer a room immediately once I notified them so I will commend them on that. Staff were friendly and everything else was good.

charming facility with amenities such as happy hour( wine & cheese), breakfast. Bathroom gets flooded as shower is only separated by a cloth shower curtain, sink is very small. There were no electrical outlets near bed or small desk/dresser. The AC is a residential window unit that although modern roared frequently throughout the night 3 feet away from the bed. Uncomfortable mattress on top of a wooden platform. Wifi did not work.

Hotel was very cute & comfortable and I love the historic vibe. Does not necessarily have all the bells and whistles of a modern hotel (rooms are pretty small), but is in a really excellent location. Unfortunately we were not able to turn the AC on in our room and had to get an employee to do it, but other than that it was quite nice.

The front desk staff was friendly and welcoming, and this extended to the complimentary happy hour and breakfast, where guests can get to know other guests. The service was good, yet my room was not stocked with shampoo, soap, lotion, tissue, and toilet tissue after the first day of my stay, so I had to buy these items from a pharmacy.
