The Hotel is going through renovation, and our room had not received it yet. Room was clean but worn. I will return, and hopefully all rooms will have the much needed renovation.

My kind of hotel - excellent location, friendly staff, older hotel - they were doing some renovations/updates, but I appreciate the character of older/higher quality decor (armoire with robes, art from the area showing the history, etc), all amenities needed plus always available water/coffee/tea in the lobby. Would definitely come back
