I like the vintage feel to the hotel. If you want anything fancy and modern this is not the hotel you want, go to a Westin or Hilton, but if you want a nice, calm, and cozy hotel this is the hotel for you. I would totally be back.

A quirky old hotel with an interesting history. The room was fine but sparsely furnished and the lighting was dim. The front desk staff was very friendly and offered great suggestions for dining.

One side of the building is next to the main street, and there is high-pitched noise from the AC and fridge inside. Otherwise, the location is convenient and the service is good

Excellent historic hotel! Extremely clean, has to be the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in!! There is a cute cafe that one door down and a little convenience store for all your needs. In walking distance to Paramount Studios as well. The only downside is the Wi-Fi was wonky, but not to much of a bother because we didn’t spend much time in the room.
