The hotel was neat. I enjoyed the history behind it. The bed was a bit soft for me but I made do. Curious as to why the room was slanted but it did not appear that the building from the outside was slanted. Just a curious observation.

Really enjoyed our stay at this historic hotel. The history behind it is very fascinating and the decorations went along with that. The front staff Carrie was so super friendly if we are ever in Placerville, we would stay here again.

Lady at the front desk was very nice. The building is very old so don't expect it to be anything like a new hotel but it's nice for how old it is. My only complaint is that the bed made a lot of noise so moving around or rolling over in the night might wake up the other person.
From the second story balcony that's open until 10pm
