The room, and the hotel were clean and comfortable. The history of the hotel was very interesting and we really enjoyed reading about it. It was a hotel with character and we’ll be sure to book there again. We also had a couple of great meals in the hotel’s restaurant. The front desk staff, security and restaurant staff were all super friendly and helpful.
