The hotel is noted for being clean and safe, with a unique old-fashioned atmosphere.

Pros (+) Breakfast? What breakfast? Location was good, that was about it.
Cons (-) Room was last renovated in 1945 or so.

Pros (+) It was fine. Cool to see some of the history, but it’s like they forgot to evolve it to the 21st century. The shower only pumped hot water every 30 seconds, and even then it was scalding before it reverted to luke warm. It was mostly clean, but not spotless. The rooms were fine, but tiny and a weird layout. Was tough to maneuver luggage around. Nice pool. No hot tub. No bar or room service. People...

Pros (+) Location & price.
Cons (-) I was given a room key for a room that was already occupied. Then, the guests on my floor (3) were loud all night, as if there was a party in the hallway outside my door.

Anonymous, Jun 2016
Cons (-) The front desk lady was extremely rude to start. Absolutely zero parking although the add indicated parking is available. We had to PAY for parking and walk 5 blocks in the 110 heat. No breakfast. The bathroom door had no lock. And, the kicker is this morning I have little bites all over me!
