Nice place to stay.

This old courthouse that has been remodeled was a very nice place to stay. The room was a little small and electric outlets were a bit inconvenient but it was clean and comfortable. The price was reasonable.

What a novel and extremely comfortable place to stay! The converted courthouse offers beautiful accommodations at an affordable price. Francis who was at the desk was friendly, fun, and helpful. Be sure to book a room with a view of the Bay.

Perfect except for entry with our luggage. Many stairs involved to get into the building.
Suzanne, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A beautiful historic building, fully renovated but preserving the majestic decor and charm. Thoroughly enjoyed our five night stay. Breakfast was very good. We had a rental car so we’re able to drive around the city. There didn’t appear to be restaurants or retail close to the hotel. Nearby streets didn’t look to be tourist friendly-a bit sketchy I would say.
