We really enjoyed the location, the entryway and the great little restaurant/bar. The rooms are old-fashioned, but they’re clean and they work, could use some updating when it comes to fixtures and overall appearance in the rooms.

Ac stopped working in room, maintenance came so fast and when it couldn't be fixed I was upgraded to an even nicer room at no charge and no wait. Staff were helpful and friendly. Hotel is adorable and experience was so much better than anywhere else we would have stayed for our conference.

The hotel itself is old but it has a pretty nice “haunted house” vibe which I loved. The manager was amazing to us since I needed some accommodations that I thought I was getting when I booked the room, management made it happen though. Very very happy with my stay at this place.

The hotel reminds you of Main Street in Disneyland but it’s real, not fake. The room was great and the bar at the hotel was awesome. We will definitely be back.
