I had hoped for a more historic ambiance. While the lobby and bar area were charming, our room was quite small with what appeared to be a full-sized bed and modern wood linoleum flooring—I was expecting classic wooden floors. Additionally, our window faced directly into another room, so we had to keep it closed for privacy. Overall, it didn’t meet my expectations.

Historical clean but some issues
Free parking lot out front.
Very well preserved historical elements but great air conditioning and clean.
Service was hit or miss as there is no dedicated desk position.
Lots of noise from adjoining room due to thin door with large gap beneath.
Would stay again.
