Looked more like a normal establishment than I had expected - thought it’d be a little more historical looking but it was a nice place to stay. Clean and very convenient to the train which we took the next morning after arriving the evening before. upon returning from the Canyon trip we visited the pool area making use of the hot tub. Nice clean space although the hot tub jets were broken - if you turned them on it was master blaster setting and shot water all over the place. Not relaxing so had to turn off the sets. Didn’t try any of the food services. Nice place to stay if you are taking the train.

I paid a little more to stay here based on the pictures and the thought that it might be historic, interesting, and sort of luxurious. The hotel is not particularly luxurious or historically interesting. It was comfortable, quiet, and conveniently located near downtown, which was important to me. The room had a bad smell and needed airing out, deep cleaning, or deodorizing.

Very pleasant property with interesting displays of railroad memorabilia on the grounds as well as well appointed rooms, a lovely grand lobby and two restaurants as well as a pub/bar. I prefer brighter lighting options in the room, but we fared well with the multiple lamps available.
