Very walkable and in a good location. It is a historic hotel and with that there are certain things that will not look as new as a newer hotel. It is still a solid hotel, the room was a little smaller than others. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Very old style. The rooms were lacking. Walls were scratched up-carpet was stained. It was clean. And the lobby was beautiful! Breakfast was really good, but lacking good customer service. Boiler broke down first day there. Had no hot water or heat. They did switch me over to a really nice hotel and paid for it themselves. So that was very nice!
