Quilt Show Hotel

The hotel is very old but very nice inside everything was clean. They are remodeling was very disappointed because everything they said they had on the hotels.com. They did not have. They did not have a gym that we could use. They did not have breakfast lunch or dinner except for on certain days and we still didn't know what those were Was difficult to find a breakfast spot. The hotel itself was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. The rooms were very clean. It was close to the convention center, which is where we were going.

Quiet and comfortable room with a good number of walkable places to eat like Tobacco Company and Hard Shell. The immediate area is quaint with cobblestone streets which makes it pleasant and scenic for short walks. The staff are attentive, checking in on you by text.
