The property its amazing, its quiet if youre not trying to have people around. The only downside is that there were literally no taxis nearby so it took me a while to find one.

It is a unique piece of history, a snapshot in time. Ruby was great at check in, warm and friendly. I really appreciated the details and invite to the lounge, I was just too travel weary to go.

I loved the retro aspect and the history. I like to stay in places that have been around and have some history. The staff was awesome. Good luck with the remodeling and I will be back. It is good to see someone putting the effort into a place that was once great. Thank you.

On line it says there is a pool and there wasn't. That was our main reason to picking this place for our daughter to be able to go swimming
