Very historic but needs some modernization
I loved the historic aspect of the hotel, all the nooks and crannies, and even the ghost stories. The staff was excellent. I really loved my own four poster bed, and the two bath rooms since I had a roommate. However, we were never able to set the room to a comfortable temperature. Mostly, we were too cold. We could not adjust the ac to a reasonable temperature without the heat coming on. Then it became too hot. Our best solution was to leave the ac at the warmest (still cold) setting possible, and then turn it off when we went to bed. It would have been nice if the thermostat indicated the actual room temperature. I easily connected to the AT&T wireless in the room on the first evening. However, after that it would connect, but there was no connectivity - that is, it didn't work. I was too busy with other activities to complain or try to fix it once the conference started. I liked the room furnishings, especially the bed, but some of the furniture was well worn and the rug was dirty and wet in one location, so I never went barefoot. The location was fantastic. The value was great because of the conference rate and having a roommate. The service was superb. I slept quite well, as I was buried under the wonderful covers of the bed.
