Wonderful

Attendee an event that ran late. Nowhere in communication did it say you’d lose your room if you didn’t check in by a certain time. Luckily, we called ahead to notify them and our reservation was flagged, but then was told if we’d arrived 10 minutes later, our room would have been given away. Not sure who was looking for a room at 2 am that they would have given ours away. But it would have been nice to have known that.
The only change i would have liked more was parking. We were on motorcycles and we were lucky to get the last parking space while there. However i do inderstamd the is no option to expand, so not the hotels fault.
Overall great stay. Loved the staff!
My stay was very enjoyable. Loved the ambience and history. Nice town.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
No USBs
Historic hotel was clean and comfortable, but a bit too historic. There were no USB outlets of any kind and few electrical outlets which limited the ability to charge various electronic devices.
The staff was fantastic as aways. Only complaint was that the AC fan in my room was so loud that I couldn't sleep. Needed to stay 1 more night and asked for different room which was great
it has a fantastic location one minute walk to the Lincoln theater. Dinner options were quick and easy 3 to 4 restaurants within 10 steps of this hotel.
