This is a beautiful and historic property. The grounds are very nice, although during our stay they were adjacent to a restaurant that was under construction. The staff was very accommodating.
We stayed in the top-floor suite, which is a very cool and unique place to stay. "Cool" can be used in several ways in this context:
• The bedroom was very cool, with excellent air conditioning and a comfortable sleeping temperature. Stained glass historic doors and antique furnishings ensured this was a beautiful room.
• The living room was cool in the sense that it was a fascinating and unusual space. Unfortunately, it was also extremely warm because there is no air conditioning in this large room.
• The bathroom is cool and unique. It's located off the living room and is only partially enclosed with glass block walls. That's a neat design feature until someone decides it's time for a serious bathroom visit. At that point, the living room can become part of the experience.
One thing to note: the stairs leading to this suite are very steep and narrow, similar to stairs you might find on a boat. We found them somewhat challenging to navigate.
That said, we enjoyed this unique property and would stay here again. There are also many other room options available, depending on your needs and preferences.
