We love history and staying in an old historic hotel is always a treat. The Farmacy Restaurant for breakfast was great. The Brimstone Restaurant serves great food but the music was way too loud. Room was nice but finishes are starting to look dated. all in all, a good experience.

The hotel itself is really great! I could totally see this being a perfect spot for couples. The entrance is enchanting, and the in-building cafes and restaurants are a huge plus. The rooms themselves are also spacious, clean, and well-designed. I'm glad I chose to stay here while I was travelling to Bakersfield. One thing I would note for future travelers: it is valet parking ONLY, and it costs $15 a day. I don't feel super comfortable doing valet (I'd much rather have access to my keys at all times) but I caved and did it anyways because there is very very limited overnight parking allowed in downtown. Which, in my opinion, is weird considering its a bit of a ghost town. Regardless, the valet workers were super helpful, were available 24/7 and took good care of my car :)
