Historical hotel not that great
People and service was very nice. Our room was a cracker box with several safety issues. My husband could not shower comfortably as it was so tiny. Thought it would be nicely painted etc. decorated from a thrift shop. Again people were nice and location perfect but would not stay there again. And no parking available

Nice, quaint place to stay. Room was on the small side and the bathroom very small, but nice view from the windows (3). Staff makes the place really enjoyable. Nice breakfast options. Super friendly and accommodating. What more can you want from your accommodations? Parking a bit of a hassle, but not much. 3 hr parking in front of the hotel sometimes, and overnight parking about a block away.

What an amazing experience staying @ the Historic Nichols hotel!! Hotel staff (Blaze and Todd) were very very helpful! Easy walk to the Lighthouse, shops and restaurants. The homemade breakfast was delicious! The next time, I'm going to stay here more than one night!
