This was our second time staying at this property this summer. The king sized bed room is nice (local old photographs are a nice touch) and clean. It’s within walking distance of some fun shops and nearby family. The historic building is unique (showing some signs of wear) and gift shop is worth stopping in. We plan to return when visiting family again.

We enjoyed staying in a renovated historical hotel. We loved the historical photos through out the hotel. Broadway street was fun and the local cafe Fresco Bistro which was excellent and was in walking distance of the hotel. The only limitation was some of the restaurants were closed on Monday and Tuesday.

It's 100 year old hotel. The beds were ok. The service was excellent. Especially the people behind the counter and the restaurant. The food was good. The best part is the Erie shoreline. Downtown Lorain is a little rundown. Of course I couldn't enjoy it because of the Canadian wildfires. All of Ohio was engulfed in smoke. I plan on coming back mostly from the excellent service. They have line dancing downstairs and roof top bands on the weekends.
