Sheila, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Nice historic building and exterior. Nice and close to station. Good things end there. Paint in rooms is old and scuffed, with various marks on the walls and doors. Can hear everything happening in the hallways. Good water pressure, but temperature could only be described as lukewarm. Breakfast was average and not worth it.
