The property was very interesting as historical so was a little different. Great staff & location. Just be aware that no TV in room or bathroom-just a sink. There were several bathrooms on the floor so no problem & always clean. We would stay there again.

My thoughts.

It was a good stay! Fascinated by the hotel's history, and appreciated the staff's willing to be of assistance. Was not exactly expecting for the bathroom to be shared, I may have glossed over that fact. Wished there was some kind of mini fridge in the room for any leftover foods to avoid any chance of food going bad otherwise anything I had to eat will be just tossed out. Noise in environment around rooms were ok, you could hear footsteps from other visitors, but it isn't as bad as you think! Would stay here again although, and try out more things to do in the area!
