The staff was very friendly, and the restaurant is wonderful! The rooms are very dated, however this is to be expected considering this is a historic site. Good value for the price.

Positives are location. It is right on the main street and close to gambling and other amenities. It is upstairs from a fun casino and is a unique historical building. The negatives are the rooms are very run down with cracks in the walls, chipping paint, carpet is very old and stained, furniture is old and worn, water pressure is bad and bathroom sink is a pedestal sink with no counter space. Also construction workers were slamming doors early in the morning. Other Positives were the price was good for weekday and winter. They advertise they are remodeling in 2025, so we may try it again after remodel.

Beds were comfortable enough and the room was clean. About the most you can ask for out of an old historic building. Just wish they had mini fridges in the rooms
