"Staff was helpful. Building was very well maintained and unique. There was no elevator and the stairs are steep and hallways were a bit narrow, but I would stay there again. Parking was limited, but found street parking near the hotel. Breakfast was adequate for something quick before heading out."

"Excellent in every way except for the shower fixtures which were not upgraded to the extent of the toilet and vanity. My note: This was probably due to not wanting to redo the shower surround, which was an error in our opinion."
