This 1921 boutique hotel is supposed to be haunted by the apparition of a well-dressed man in an old-fashioned suit. Employees believe this is the ghost of a former butler, who has saved the building from demolition and despair on several occasions.

We stayed there. When my wife took a shower the words ‘kill them’ were written backwards in the condensation on the mirror. This was followed by and extremely heavy feeling and unexplained scratches on my face.
We stayed there last night, the ceiling fan turned on by itself making a loud noise and the room instantly got freezing cold. What room did you stay in?
its like the same date man creepy
We stayed there and we kept hearing foot steps and the sound of old buggy carts.
We checked in this afternoon, staying on the third floor. I returned alone to the room to retrieve something, and going up the stairs had a heavy feeling. On the third floor, while walking down the hallway, I felt like someone was behind me. When I told my daughter, she Googled it, and it said the hotel was reported to be haunted. Can’t wait until late tonight to walk in the hallways.
Stayed in 214 at first it was nice, I took a shower and then I got a whiff of a horrible smell. It smelled like death rotting flesh. I left the bathroom and got settled for bed the smell stayed in the room all night. When we woke up I asked my 21 year old grandson if he smelled it he said no but .
We stayed there last night. I had what I thought was a weird dream but possibly in that in between stage.. I heard what I think was two ladies standing over me discussing the fact that so so ( presumably a man) will not be happy with my bag and stuff in his chair. It was weird waking up remembering this.
I stayed there last night in room 304. I thought I heard in my head, “Kindly don’t place things on my chair.” So, I took my stuff off and didn’t put anything on there again, nor did I sit in it. I went to get ice, come back and the trash can was over on it’s side.
Went on a ghost tour and got permission to walk up to the third floor. Got a very heavy feeling going up the stairs from second to third floor only around the wash bin. All 4 of us had the same heavy feeling- not scary or sad, just a presence. Very cool experience. After a few minutes, the feeling became less so we went back downstairs.
