Would never stay here again.
Pros:

The king sized bed was very comfortable, pillows were soft, and the large tub was great.

Cons:

Booking needs to add descriptions of what hotels are like. This hotel doesn't have an elevator so if you have bad knees, good luck getting your bags up two flights of stairs. The food is way overpriced. And the hotel sits in the middle of a party zone til 3 am, which is great if your a 20 something but I'm not.

Dreadful.
Cons:

The property has an outside bar with a stage. The noise level was so high that the window was vibrating and sleep impossible. This was on a Thursday night and ended at 1:00 AM.

Pros:

I enjoyed the haunted aspect and the lobby was cute!Beds were surprisingly comfortable.

Cons:

The noise level. It wasnt explicitly stated in the booking.com page. Nothing against the hotel, they were up front when we arrived about it. Kind of ridiculous the hotel can't accommodate parking costs but they were low enough to not be upset. Nightly rate was higher than I anticipated without having any amenities and the noise until 2am. No refrigerator, no microwave.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay and would go back in a heartbeat.
Pros:

The front desk staff was so friendly and helpful. The on-site restaurant, Cup Cafe was very convenient, the staff was attentive and efficient and the food was incredible.

Cons:

The shower was small, had very little pressure and couldn't quite decide if it wanted to give you hot or cold water. I've stayed in enough old hotels to know that's pretty part for the course. Also it is a bar Ina college town and Saturday nights can be a bit loud and rowdy. Biput again par for the course.
