I think the best part was the vintage look and feel as it is over 100 years old. I also like the location for access to the Cumberland Island NP. All of the front desk staff was great and they held cold items for me in the frig. However, the split unit in the room is oversized for the volume it needs to condition which leads to a problem called short cycle where the unit can cool but it can't extract the moisture so it feels "clammy." Also, there is no window screen so you can't open the window. I couldn't open the window anyway because a guest was smoking on the roof. Inside rooms have doors that lead to a flat roof.

We loved this hotel! We loved the historical value and the ability to briefly step back in time to experience a time gone by. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful. We ate at the attached restaurant and were impressed with the food. The area was beautiful and worthy of exploring. Our only regret was that we were just passing thru and didn't have time to seriously check out the area. We made a promise to ourselves that we would return specifically to enjoy the hotel and the area!
