A quaint hotel which takes you back to a time when life was a lot simpler, It has the feel of a 1950's decor. Very clean and a little worn and dated. I will stay here next summer when I return.

Take a step back in time when you go thru the doors at Stearns. We loved that lots of old features had been retained and the lady on reception was really helpful and recommended a fab place to eat a short walk away. The outside looks run down and needs a bit of TLC.

Not impressed...

The building is very old. It felt like a funeral parlor when entering. The rooms were very small and bathroom even smaller. There was not even any counter space to set your toothbrush on...an exaggeration but nonetheless... The room only had one side table with a lamp next to the bed. The other side had nothing. For the amount of money paid, we were very disappointed and glad it was only a one night stay. The hotel is in desperate need of updating.
