Like the historic charm. Steak house prices are ridiculous. Continental Breakfast is kinda a joke, Winstons is showing its age. Staff was less than energetic. I realize they are a beer bar, but could at least try carbonating the pop. Mixed drink selection bad, and pop is always flat!! Hotel itself is great, staff good, always accommodating. Maybe one tea bag per toom for those not into coffee. New TV system super confusing lol.

Overall we will definitely stay here again, front desk manager that checked us in was so friendly, helped us park our big truck in their back gated parking lot. Pub was attached to hotel which is something we like. Hotel has a vintage vibe which was so nice. Room was very clean and comfortable. Only negative thing would be the bed was too soft and sagged in the middle.

We enjoy our stay, this hotel was very clean and enjoyed the history of the building. Down fall is all the homeless people begging for money and had to walk around several of them sitting on the side walk.

My wife and I were celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary and I called ahead to see what they could do for us and the manager Chris Beavis arranged to have some craft beer waiting for us in the room and a very nice note on behalf of the hotel staff wishing us a happy anniversary. My wife and I really appreciated it. Thanks for a great stay!
