We stayed in the annex. This would be great with a group of friends or family. No great for people that may have a problem with stairs. We had two floors and two kitchens. Lots of room to be together or room to be a lone.

I really enjoyed my stay at the 1857. The bed was so comfortable! It felt so homey. The small shops and the river area were a perfect combination of relaxation and comfort that I needed while in town for my mother's surgery. Staff were kind and available whenever needed. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again if the need arises.

The staff was great and the room was clean and very interesting. The one oddity is that the tub and shower were part of the room without a curtain, door, etc. We thought it was great, but if you're traveling with a non-spouse, it might be kind of awkward.
