Jeffrey
Nice, classic southern hotel. Great location. Park across street and tons of dining and shopping in all directions around. Rooms were nice, clean. Comfortable bed. Bathroom was small and had an older feel, but served it's purpose. Perfect for a solo traveler.

The hotel was conveniently located to dining, shopping, and sight seeing. It had a nostalgic feel and the rooms were nicely decorated. The bathrooms were dated, but it is a very old building.

We really enjoyed the area! The staff were all incredibly lovely! The rooms are a little outdated but comfortable, well appointed and very clean. The Starbucks on property has the friendliest, sweetest staff ever. Definitely would stay here again!
