    Exactly what we wanted, clean nicely decorated, comfortable bed. Close to historical sites but out of the business & great rates!! 5+.

    Nice hotel. Breakfast was a bit lackluster I feel, but only other bad thing was the horrible TV service. Barely any channels.

    Got checked in. Went up to the room, opened the door and was hit by a strong smell of cigarette smoke, room was dirty, and the bed was not made. Clearly housekeeping didn’t clean the room. Immediately went downstairs and told the front desk. He just said “that’s weird”. No apology was given. Gave us a different room. This room was fine in the sense that at least it didn’t smell like cigarettes and the bed was made. The shower and tub was gross, covered in grime, gunk caked in the cracks, and discolored. Shower curtain was yellow it was so discolored. The air conditioner barely worked. The fridge had not been cleaned. The sheets and blanket had some black lint and dirt on them. The bed was SO HARD, the hardest bed I have ever slept in. The pillows were small and not great. There was a strange brown stain on the ceiling. The hallways were loud with people slamming doors. Breakfast in the morning was not great. The milk for cereal was sitting out in a pitcher. Only two types of cereal. There was no fresh fruit. There was scrambled eggs, sausage, and biscuits with gravy but none of it was good and all had a weird texture. Best thing was the waffle maker honestly. The yogurt comes out of a weird machine. The sitting area was small. No elevator so if you are handicapped or have heavy bags, have fun getting up the stairs. Only thing this place has going for it is the proximity to downtown. The “Historic” is code for old, rundown, and gross unfortunately.

    Had a very tiring and stressful day when I arrived to this location for check in. To make matters worse when I arrived at the hotel I realized I had left my wallet elsewhere. Mitchell and Bob at the front desk were extremely calm and accommodating and helped me get in the room until I could retrieve my wallet. After the day I had today that was a very much appreciated gesture from them. Excellent customer service, thank you, and I will return to this hotel because of the Excellent and understanding service of the staff. (Traveling through on cross country tour 10/14/25)
