Over all this hotel was very nice. This will be one of the go to hotels as we travel.
Pros:

Very nice hotel. In a historical building, everyone very helpful.

Cons:

There was hair all over the floor in bathroom. Used a washcloth to rub on floor and there was a handful of hair on the wash cloth.

Beautiful hotel, delicious breakfast, spacious room
Pros:

Breakfast was delicious! The room size was the perfect size for our group of 5.

Cons:

With a group that size you’ll always need more toilet tissue. We had to call for that and more towels. The tv was along a wall making it impossible to watch from the bed.
