While we love historic hotels, we would not stay here again. Room 205 was actually fairly nicely decorated and bed very comfortable. The small folding table in the bathroom is not a replacement for a vanity. The water damage and mold is a constant problem in between the sink and shower and cannot be fixed by multiple layers of plaster. One shade had several tears in it. The music noise from the restaurant was too loud and went until 11:00 pm. The problems with the showers have not been addressed and are terrible.
It was my first time staying in this historic property and I thought the building was very pretty outside and inside. I thought the rooms were a little bit bare and while adequate they lacked the charm of other historical properties where I have stayed. My room (208) was directly over the restaurant and because it was a busy Saturday night, it was loud well into the night. I found the coffee bar convenient but when the half and half and half ran low, it was not replenished. I also felt check in was a little confusing --
I was very disappointed room 309 was very dark and dingey. With dark shutters and old shades. Lights were dark and dull, terrible to put make up on.
Never was I told to wash my face with paper towel to remove make up. Decided to wait to get to my home to shower. Would not likely recommend. Sue M.

Lucky we did not have a problem climbing 3 sets of stairs-
Old property- room was on a slant - minimal bedding- sheer curtain on 2 windows, with NO Shade or blinds -middle window had a shade- restaurant linen napkins were placed one after the other ~ being used as a bureau cover/doily( It had the same yellow stripe as their dinner napkins at the restaurant.
The Lunch at Rocco's was fabulous best part of the stay!
There was no heat. They provided a space heater that scared me and was a bright light all night long.
No desk, or anywhere to sit and use laptop or write.
No coffee machine. Coffee in the hall, but no decaf.
No microwave. No refrigerator or ice machine.
No decent lighting. Forget about putting makeup on in the bathroom.
I had to carry luggage up and down 2 flights of steps.
The floors were severely tilted, I worried that the building was not sound.
My stay was a bit scary.
I was supposed to go back and stay there again in a few days after I attended a wedding, but I cancelled.
The hotel is in desperate need of remodeling. The shower is yellowish from age, the toilet is so old I don't think they make that color any more. The ceiling needs to be spackled and the floors need to be leveled. Oh and the stairs need more light and are crooked. I would have thought I was drunk but the only thing I drank was water.

We were happy to get a room. Had a great dinner on site. And a clean accommodation
Great location room was clean and comfortable. The resturaunt was packed so we eat a short walk away at the Green Parot. They had a great band so we stayed thru to the last set. We would come back again and stay at same hotel.
This is not a hotel with a restaurant. Rather it is a very large ( and very good) restaurant with rooms upstairs. The hotel is an afterthought. There is no front desk. The small front desk that exists is for the restaurant. There is no lobby. When you check in there is a key waiting for you and when you check out, you just leave the key. Gives the term "remote " a new meaning. The rooms are old and stuffy. You can't open a window because there are no screens. The dust ruffle on the bed was held together with safety pins. The shades were ripped. Wasn't even a couch to sit on in the room. An old room with old furniture, old plumbing and old electric ( there are warnings posted as to how to operate the hair dryer so as not to blow a fuse) is not necessarily historic. It is just old. The music from the restaurant downstairs permeated the rooms all day. The room was small and there were bugs. Would have been better off in a Comfort Inn. Good location however.
Beautiful hotel and room was spacious. Bathrooms could use an upgrade but overall we loved it. I think you expect in old hotels like this that that old charm is part of the deal. We will be back!

a little disappointed
The room was not as depicted. Also, we expected breakfast as advertised on the web site, but we were told they no longer serve breakfast.
The room was very clean. The bathroom was spotless although there was a note asking you to use paper towels rather than the hand towels to avoid staining the white towels with makeup. The floor, being a very old building was very uneven. There isn’t an elevator so be prepared to climb stairs with your luggage. The restaurant Rocco’s was great!
Unbelievably rude staff at check in. Filthy room, now i understand all the bad reviews. The only highlight of the evening was the Valet, he was pleasant, knowledgeable of the surrounding area and quite helpful. Sadly that is no reason to ever return. In fact things were so bad that before we left in the morning we took pictures of the room so that we have proof of what it looked like. Just in case.
Great history. Room was very comfortable. The area has a great selection of dining options within walking distance. Felt very safe walking around the area. It should be noted that rooms are a walk up stairs. Rooms could use better shades, which is not an issue to me as I wake early.
