The common and gathering rooms are lovely and comfortable and the staff is welcoming. The area has lots of little eateries and great craft shops. The room itself was a bit dingy with a very very strong mold/mildew smell, signs of water damage, cracked outer window, stained commode seat, extremely creaky beds. I could not stay additional nights because it triggered my asthma but the hotel was gracious about working with Hotels.com.

Second time staying at this wonderful old historic hotel. It is located in a very nice area with several nice small shops in the same block. Very nice fudge shop a couple of restaurants and some very nice speciality shops. The night we stayed was the night of the local high school prom. It was a great evening setting on the grand porch and watch parents take pictures of their children in their beautiful dresses and tuxedos. However we did have a problem with the service in the restaurant. It was extremely slow. The food arrived cold. They were generous and replaced our meals not just warmed up but with new meals. The next morning the same thing happened. They comped the breakfast. The are in the process of remodeling the dining area I’m not sure if this caused the problem or if it is just poor restaurant management Will stay here in travels

The historic nature of the property and the location are excellent. We had a road-facing room with a lot of road noise, but in a college town that probably cannot be helped. My family’s other two rooms faced the inner section of the hotel which was less scenic but much quieter.
