We spent one night to attend a concert. We had to park on the street however was not a problem. The hotel is old but very well kept. The rooms were comfortable and quiet. The staff were all very welcoming. We would stay there again.

Visiting Parents
The hotel is in a great location. Free breakfast is fantastic. My room was cleaned only one time for a weeks stay. That needs improvement. Water pressure is low. Could be better. Overall a nice hotel.
Ted, 7-night trip

2night stay
Hotel is very old and needs updating. The hotel was being used for people that lost their home due to the hurricane so was busy. Very quiet despite this. Friendly staff. Street parking available. Not sure about the pool the weather was to cold.

Wonderful hotel with modern amenities and old school charm.
Mark, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room had a mildew smell. I let the front desk employee know and she said she’d disinfect the room, but it still had a musty smell.
Laura, 2-night trip

It’s an old building and we enjoyed learning its history. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is nice each morning.

Cute historic B&B.
Cute historic B&B. Enjoyed out stay, and would stay again.
Kelsey, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Somewhat underwhelming compared to reviews
Was underwhelmed by the welcome i received as so many reviews had mentioned the friendliness of staff. I was kept waiting without apparent reason and not spoken to until i "interrupted" the paper shuffling. My room leaked and i received no follow-up when i reported this. So a bucket with a towel in it shared the room with me all week. House keeping clearly thought this meant i didnt need replacement towels for a few days. The carpet was not vaccumed while i was there. Breakfast was adequate but not in keeping with how much was being charged. The breakfast staff were helpful and nice. I got the impression the hotel was luving off past glories. But it was nice and quiet with good parking.
Laura, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is nice and the staff are friendly. The hotel’s 3rd floor smells musty like an old home.
Michele, 3-night trip
