Excellent location, as it is a stop on the tourist trolley and very close to attractions and restaurants. This is an old property but it is very clean. The beautiful live oak tree and the short walk on Magnolia behind the hotel makes up for the noise from being on the busy street.

Loved having “The Senator” the 650 yo live oak tree on the property! Very convenient, great thai food right across street and Raintree restaurant right up the street. Both excellent! Not a 4 star place but staff were good, would potentially stay there again,

They did great on the photos of the property. When you see it, you will see it’s run down. The room was clean and bed was just right. Would I stay again maybe. For the look of the place I would want to pay less next time.

The room was clean, modern and comfortable. The property contains an amazing 600 year-old oak tree (13 feet in circumference); however, the grounds around it are not kept to the standard this monument deserves.
