I love the historical character of the property and the staff was exceptional. The property is old, so expect fewer outlets, and a few other quirks but the character outweighs those things IMO. Beds are comfy and room was clean. Staff was wonderful in assisting us with what we thought was a burned out bulb, but ended up being an unplugged lamp.
So much history. Worth staying just to get an inside look. Fascinating. The accommodations were fine - clean & quiet. No AC, but canât imagine thereâs much need most of the time. We easily cracked a window when the room felt a little stuffy. Breakfast was an unexpected surprise. Again, nothing fancy, but adequate. Appreciated being within walking distance of historic old town and waterfront.
Was surprised at the historic nature of the hotel and enjoyed about an hour walking around the hotel lobby reading about all the historic visitors like Churchill, Robert Kennedy, Ladybird Johnson, etc who I understand from the staff were all in the area for business. Outside of the covid area plastic shield at the front desk, the hotel was as you would have imagined it in the golden age. I wish more of the restaurants inside were open as I would have liked to see what they looked like. Parking was good and safe in a locked lot. Overall, was an interesting place to stay.
Wonderful historic hotel. Property working with skeleton staff that limited experience, none of the restaurants or lounges were open. Still, beautiful property.
We chose thus hotel as it looked out of the ordinary. It was like steppjng back in time. The pirtraits were great. Breakfast was not so great, a bit disappointing and depressing.
