Everything about this hotel was amazing. The staff, the location, the view! I felt like the location was pretty central to all the must see spots. They are accommodating in helping you find tours and the made to order breakfast was delicious! I would highly recommend paying extra for it. The only downfall is all the stairs. You do have to cline up to the main floor 2 flights of stairs and if you have any physical issues request a room on the same floor as the elevator. All the staff was amazing. Thank you all for a wonderful stay! We will be back!

Its a clean but basic hotel. It seems a bit overpriced for not having premium bedding. Its clean and on a good location. The multi-bedroom options may be perfect for families.

I enjoyed the location, clean room and beauty of the property. Disappointed in managements unwillingness to accommodate some requests. I asked to use my breakfast coupon ( which I had already paid for ) a day early as I was checking out a day early from the hotel due to a change in plans. They declined to honor that which I found a bit odd.

Property has its unique charm and antiquity. Which perfect for the name. Staff very attentive and helpful. The room we stayed was a bit small. I thought we were going to get a queen bed but got a full size bed. But all in all it’s was great.
