Place was run down but the staff was super nice and accommodating. It was only 1 night so was not the end of the world but I would probably not stay again.

Fine for a cheap place to stay for a night.
It was a clean place to stay. The place is historic but is in need of repair. The bathroom floor was falling apart. Beds were extremely worn out but clean.
