This property was such a wonderful surprise! We had no idea when we booked that it was filled with so much nostalgia, history, and unique movie memorabilia, it made the experience even more special. The rooms are charming, and the beds are incredibly comfortable, which made it easy to relax after a long day. The on-site restaurant was also fantastic. If you’re someone who appreciates history and character, you will absolutely love this hotel!
