Well maintained and clean. Friendly and helpful staff! Free breakfast and coffee delivered to our room every morning was such a treat! Great location to everything in the historic district. Our room was decorated so charming and clean but only downside was the mattresses are wearing down a bit and need to be replaced, regardless, we slept well and I would still recommend. Great check in/checkout times as well!

The property is absolutely beautiful and in the heart of all the action- but very quiet! The rooms are gorgeous, clean, and the beds are very comfy. I only stayed here one night but will plan to return again. As a side note, I was travelling alone this leg of my trip and was selective about finding a place where I would feel safe- this was Perfect!
