Overall the stay was nice and it is a cute hotel with interesting decor. The building was clean and the ataff was great. The doors to many of the rooms however are warped creating considerable gaps at the top or bottom. I was able to remedy this to a degree by locking the door but the aforementioned warping made it difficult.

Newly updated. Nice staff. Has a bar with food service and breakfast options. The hot water needed attention before we had hot water, and the charged a $25 plus tax resort fee that was a surprise to us at checkout. At least we did get extra services for fee.
