The main space with memorabilia of its former days as a courthouse with the original oak wood work and legal books was a very nice touch, making for a unique experience.

I loved the fact that the old court house was converted to a hotel. I loved the authentic look. The room was spacious. The only thing that I would add would be a light at the entrance of the room.
