  • I give this place two stars rather than one because there were no obvious health hazards or pest infestations. That's the best I can say about it. I've stayed in a lot of historic hotels and B&Bs and I've studied the history of domestic spaces for some time, so it's not that I didn't know what I was getting myself into with a historic hotel. Generally, a historic hotel has undergone at least some mild renovation since its birth, but this place has had little more than a fresh coat of paint and new carpet since what appears to be the early 1980s. It literally feels like staying in antique shop, vaguely dilapidated and sad and definitely haunted. The whole hotel seems like it is painfully strapped for cash, to the point where I feel a little bad writing a negative review but I have to be honest. The lobby is tiny and dingy but quaintly Art Deco. When I got up to my floor in the spooky old elevator, I was greeted by a rickety old table and vase, and carpet bubbling up from the floor throughout the hallway. My room had a super tacky mirror for a headboard, and the bathroom gives a whole new meaning to the term "water closet." I had to lean to the side when sitting on the toilet because my body would bump into the sink otherwise! My butt touched the wall while I was doing my mascara and I had to take care not to hit my head on the cabinet when brushing my teeth. Some historic things really are not worth preserving and this terrible bathroom is one of them. Yikes. I forgot my earplugs so I was getting woken up every few minutes by people slamming their doors and talking to one another through the thin walls. Called the front desk to see if they had any--not an outrageous request and something I'm sure any chain hotel could accommodate--but they didn't so I just tossed and turned in my extremely warm room (original 1930s central heat and air so the most you can do is open/close a vent). I described it to my husband as the Barton Fink hotel, and I guess I'm just glad I didn't get woken up by a gun-toting maniac running through the halls screaming "I'll show you the life of the mind!" I can't believe this place is $200 a night. It's outrageous. God knows where the money is going! I could have stayed at the Sheraton just around the corner for the same price.
