Hotel was just ok - it was fine for what we needed but wouldn't stay more than two nights. The property is an historical site but in very poor shape. It's a little shabby. However it was clean, and the service - especially the valet, was friendly and efficient. Rooms were spacious and clean, beds were decent. The hotel had no modern conveniences like a small cafe for coffee or breakfast to go in the morning. The location is just on the border of the downtown/touristy area - I wouldn't feel safe walking by myself at night around that particular block.
