I loved this historic hotel and the location couldn’t be beat. The queen suite I reserved was spacious and comfortable at a lower cost than one room arrangements at other nearby hotels. The front desk staff was very helpful, as were the valets. The breakfast seemed reheated and the sofa bed was old, but everything else was excellent.
