I loved this place and so did my son. My husband did not. Essentially, if you want to experience a piece of living history that's right next to the national park, you'll love it. If you hate the smell of smoke, like modern hotel amenities and the idea of dirty water in the pipes, you probably won't love it. I definitely recommend avoiding taking a bath - even if you have a kiddo who hates showers because the yellow water with stuff floating in it is pretty gross.
