Kudos to everyone here at the property.
Pros:

We stayed in the Babe Ruth room which had nastalgia and history.
Property for it's historic age was in excellent condition, very comfortable.
The staff were 10 out of 10.
Would love to come back and stay longer.

Access to property had stairs to enter making luggage a slight challenge but not a huge issue.

Self-Service B and B
Pros:

I liked the pretty decor and spaciousness of the hotel, its feeling of calm and safety, and the freedom to come and go without any fuss or delay.

Cons:

My mattress was fine but not as comfortable as those in other hotels I have used. I'm ambivalent about the self-service nature of the hotel, but there were so many pluses, I will probably return.
