Leila

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room had a comfy bed. The service was great. They watched our bags for us after we checked out so we could explore for a few more hours before our flight out. The only reason this gets a 4 is because the bedding and furnishings are old and show wear and tear considering the price you pay for the room. Would definitely stay here again.

This was a very nice historic hotel with nostalgic decor and pleasant staff. There were many supplies including an extremely delightful smelling body wash. The only thing that could have made it better is if they had a handheld shower head.
