“Historic Hotel Nichols has the touch of authentic professional hospitality from Todd, who goes the extra mile for guests, setting the stage for memorable stays. Its location allows one to walk all over town, and the renovated 148-year-old building evokes the charm of a bygone era, almost a cross between a hotel and a B&B. While some rooms might be small, the level of service ensures that this hotel stands out positively.”
