We had a great stay at this historic old hotel! The staff was super friendly and the hotel retained many original features from the 20's and was very charming! "Breakfast" was not much of anything, but it was a good value even without the breakfast.

Awesome historical 100 year old hotel with a small time feeling but plenty big !!! Still very original and had the good feel of simpler times …. Very hospitable staff .. the young lady that checked us in was sweet and very informative …. She loved her job and it showed even though it was getting closer to midnight !! The beds were awesome .. I very rarely sleep most of the night and I woke up to the sun coming in the window (we purposely left the larger curtain open for natures wake up call !!) I hope we have the chance to return again some day !! Many thanks from the Sullivan’s
