Limited dining but the food at the attached hotel is excellent. Overall a cool old hotel. My only real complaints were a very loud/squealing from the heat so I had to turn that off and the small fridge was also very loud (and right next to the bed).

The building is beautifully restored, the restaurant and bar are wonderful. The only thing I didn't like were that there was no thermostat in the room and it was a little cold. Also the windows were the original frosted chicken wire glass, which is great, but there's no view. Also the room was small.

The only suggestion I have is to have some fresh food available for breakfast for those of us who are vegetarian. The hotel is really unique and attractive.

The hotel was charming. The downtown area lacked the tourist attractions that would have made for a better experience. Not many people in the area and not many businesses to attract visitors.
