Friendly staff, quirky historic hotel in the middle of the historic walking district convenient to food and shops, with limited parking in the back and a deck across the street in the back. Small tvs, no shower doors, and no microwave in room. Breakfast is included with most reservations and continental. Comfortable. Safe. Full of historic charm.

The breakfast was not great all they have is the usual. The room didn’t have a refrigerator and we were in an area where they didn’t have parking for a long trailer on a truck. The lounge was closed have no idea what happened there.

The gentleman at the front desk was so very helpful and pleasant. He made a note to call us if we could check in early and he did. The hotel is beautiful. Would definitely stay again.

The room and the area is very nice, but the beds were a bit uncomfortable. We expected a king or double queen (I can't remember). We fit in a queen together so I don't usually care. But the beds felt like they were full size. I don't know. Maybe I have grown bigger in my old age :) . We enjoyed our walk down Main Street and found a great restaurant called Macado's with fantastic sandwiches and very reasonable prices.

We were surprised when we could NOT CONTROL the temperature in our room. It is controlled by the hotel. They did provide us with a space heater and extra blanket. They list they have breakfast , but it was continental and not a hot breakfast. Otherwise the staff, room, location was excellent!
