First off, this is not the worst place I have ever...

First off, this is not the worst place I have ever stayed at. The rooms were clean and the bed was acceptable. However as a value and place to stay, it falls woefully short in many categories.

The hotel is definitely old, and it adds charm to a certain degree. It was built prior to electricity being commonplace, so the lack of plugs and infrastructure is to be expected. However, the infrastructure is definitely not good. There are limited plugs in the rooms and the lighting is not the best, but gets the job done. The hotel also has a potent musky smell, much like your grandparents house (doesn't matter how old you are- you know that smell). You cannot really escape it.
There are no fridges or microwaves available.
The HD TV's are present, but the HD service is not available- so you are watching SD TV on an HD TV most of time. Which is ok- since you really should not be in your hotel room but out exploring and taking advantage of the fantastic location.
The hotel staff is passable. As I said, my room was clean, etc, but noting special or even above average.
The thing that drives it is the price is very high for what you get. I feel like get Econolodge level hotel at Marriott chain prices. I would definitely not recommend it.
Also- it will take 5-10 minutes to get hot water in the shower most days- again- infrastructure is just not there.
