Liked the historic building. Even thought it was old it could have been cute. It was poorly painted inside and everything was dingy and needed a good cleaning, from the ceiling fan, shower curtains, bedspread, chairs, carpeting. The bed was ok.

Beautiful view from the porch and the proprietor was very nice and flexible with check in. We stayed in the upstairs suite and it was quite spacious with a mini fridge and microwave. This is a 200 year old building so it’s not perfect & modern like a new hotel but that’s part of the charm. It could use some updates (the mattress needs to be replaced) but it’s comfortable in every other way. I would definitely stay again if I’m ever in the area.

What an interesting place to stay! It’s hard to believe that it is over 200 years old. It is a stone’s throw from the Ohio River. So many quaint touches in the room! We will definitely stay there again when we’re in the area.

Charm. That's the first word to describe this property. Built in 1816, much of the original ediface is used for travelers. An ample porch greets you with picturesque views of the Ohio River. The hotel is right off Main Street, and the architecture has been preserved to attract tourists who like to soak in americana.
The room had its own lock and Marsha, the hostess gives travelers their own key to the room and the front door. Our room was a part of the original property. It now consists of a queen iron bed, 2 wingback chairs, 2 windows that look onto the porch, a filled-in fireplace, a secretary, a tiny area that is just right for a microwave and fridge with a coffee pot and coffee. The bath comes with a ball-and-claw tub with a shower attachment and surrounding shower curtain.
We got a great rate. If you like a very firm mattress, you are in luck! Even though history has been preserved, central heat and air are provided and a ceiling fan to keep away stuffiness.
If you are looking for cleanliness, you have it here! The property could do with a good renovation but the colorful accents provide personality and character. Besides to renovate would mean a rise in rate. Remember that.
We ate really good Mexican food for dinner and an EXCELLENT breakfast at the Main St. Diner. But take a couple of days to relax and soak up the rest it provides. You wont go wrong.

Thank you for all the kind words. The property is privately owned and operate by a single female. The priority of the hotel is to make sure the guests are comfortable and have privacy. Renovating is an ongoing process so thanks for understanding.
