My friends and I had a wonderful stay. It felt like stepping back in time staying here. We were in town to see our favorite band, Sol Driven Train, playing at Lo-Fi Brewery. We visited the Burgundy Lounge before and after the show and really enjoyed it. Our bartender made us feel so welcome!

Very clean room. Bed and bedding was so comfortable and of high quality. Slept like a baby. The newly renovated rooms with the nostalgic touch was very nice. AC/heating unit was top notch. Hotel exceeded my expectations especially since I grew up in the local area. Highly recommend, will stay again. Only recommendation is to get rid of the black hand washcloths. Get all white so it can be washed in bleach also.
