Staff very nice. Great location! The hotel is older and could use some updating, especially the bathrooms and mattress was not the most comfortable (sagging in the middle). Expensive hotel for the overall quality of the room.

The property was quaint and sweet but due to the fog the rooms were damp inside and smelled funny. the bath tub had mold around the bottom and there was no air conditioning. The staff was helpful and friendly. The rooms need some renovating.
