Great history. Beautiful lobby. Great store. Great food. Some parts needed renovation. Couldn't drink in the bar w our 12yr old even though it was adjacent to the restaurant. Messed up our food and drink order. Tv was in a weird spot on the wall. Pool wasnt open.

Great place to stay

This was our second time staying here and it didn't disappoint. We will return. The rooms are clean. The staff is very inviting, kind and super nice. We have more family wanting to go with us next time we stay here. It's a relaxing place for all.

Historical property. Very unique architecture, but a little dated. Small rooms and small bathrooms. Very clean. Currently going through some renovations, and construction noise started very early while we were there. Good restaurant attached to the property. A little pricey but convenient.

Loved this place - The original decor, history and atmosphere were amazing. Restaurant food was great. Room, and especially the bathroom, were too small. Would spend a little extra and upgrade to the larger room next time. There is a problem with theft in the parking lot, but there was a security guard on duty all the time. Will stay again next time we’re in the area definitely.
