"I enjoyed my one-night stay with my girlfriend at this iconic historic hotel. It was nice to feel like we were living back in the early 1900's. The staff was friendly and the room was nice for being so old. It has A/C but does not have a bathroom fan so it gets foggy and humid in the room. There was plenty of parking. The hotel is literally next to a waterfall so that makes for the most ideal scenery and setting for a couple's night."
