I booked this hotel understanding it was a historic property, so I didn’t have high expectations regarding modern finishes. In fact, I was excited about the opportunity to experience staying in a colonial-style building, and this felt like the perfect chance.
The hotel is clean overall, which I do appreciate. However, the reality did not match the photos shown on Expedia. From the outside, the building looks neglected—peeling paint, aging walls, and deteriorating doors and windows. At first glance, I genuinely thought we had arrived at an abandoned property until we found the main entrance, which is actually in good condition.
Customer service was disappointing. Not overtly rude, but the front desk staff did not acknowledge us for an extended period upon arrival, which set the tone for the stay.
The elevator technically works, but only reliably going up. When trying to return to the first floor, it repeatedly took us to the third floor, so we ended up using the stairs for the remainder of our stay.
The rooms are clean but in serious need of updates. The beds feel as old as the building—functional, but outdated. The couch looked unclean enough that I chose not to sit on it. The bathroom, while also clean, is very dated, and the shower drain was clogged, causing water to pool. I requested maintenance, but the issue was never addressed.
I did get the experience I was looking for—staying in a colonial-era style property—but unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. This
