If you want to stay in a piece of history and be taken care of by the friendliest people this is the place to stay. Although not the best neighborhood the hotel felt very secure. And the staff went above and beyond to make sure my (new) car would be safe. The room itself was very simple but very comfortable with lovely bedding and so so quiet! I even asked if there was anyone else in the hotel it was so quiet. And I heard no street noise other than an occasional siren in the distance.
Be warned however, there are lots of stairs.
