Our room was old fashioned, but that was why we stayed there (the hotel dates to 1883). Comfortable bed, excellent on site restaurant that attracts many locals as well as guests. Right in the heart of Mount Dora, which itself has many historical buildings and is very walkable. A peaceful place to stay. And the staff was just wonderful.
