Such a beautiful old building that the owners are taking very good care of. The rooms were plush but small. The majority of the staff bent over backwards to help us and show us around. Recommend staying here for the history of the building.

Overall a charming property with a very spacious room at a good rate. A/C and heating both worked very well. Great location right within walking distance to main dining and shopping area. Couple things to note is there is no elevator at the property but staff was able to assist with bringing luggage up. It is also private entrance to the rooms, like motel style
