Everything was good. Like all the old furniture. Housekeeping keep our room clean every day. Staff was very friendly. Stayed on the 3rd floor was really hoping to see a ghost or have some kind of paranormal experience. That was the only disappointment

Definitely a older traditional hotel feel. Very old, classical rooms and atmosphere however a lot of charm. Lots of activity going on in the bar area and cafe/food places. Times were a little tricky as to who had food when but great service.

Parking was easy squeezed under with my luggage carrier. Got to stay on the haunted 3rd floor. Everyone was charming and friendly. They even allowed my crazy dog to stay. The Galley is a great place to eat right around the corner and had a rage against the machine cover band playing while we ate!

Located in the historic town of Marietta. This hotel is unique and has a ton of Character. We ate in the Bar and Grill with a Riverview. The meal selection is limited but what we had was delicious. Would definitely stay her again if traveling through this area.

The hotel was charming, very old but a lot of history. Rooms shabby chic but bed comfy. A stale smell throughout and even though it was a non smoking place you knew there was years of smoking in the walls. The bar was lovely where we had a nice cocktail and dinner.

The room was clean. The hotel is beautiful and a great place to stay being right down town. The room was chilly when we got in there and the shower made some noise but overall it was a great stay.
