The area was easily accessible and we loved that the patio was closed with the door so our grandson, who is a toddler, could walk around and not accidentally fall down the stairs. He enjoyed the stay as much as we did! He also really enjoy looking at the walkway

I really liked how the people at the front desk were very friendly. Explained everything of our stay, how our room keys would work,etc. I liked how they had a free breakfast during our stay. Not a whole breakfast station but it had pastries, fruit, coffee, juice and yogurt. Very nice and well stocked. Clean room and comfy bed. I'll return to this hotel for sure.

This hotel is well maintained but in need of updates. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is amazing. We were aware that it was the oldest hotel in the area but minor touch ups would go a long way.
