wonderful stay at a historic hotel

the staff was helpful (i really appreciated their assistance). the location was perfect for exploring the area with everything easily accessible. i especially enjoyed the breakfast each morning. It was a great way to start the day.
I noticed the room decor was slightly outdated. the wallpaper had a few tears and the furniture showed some wear. These minor cosmetic issues detracted a bit from the otherwise excellent stay.
