“As an editor, I see a property with an interesting history near St. Joseph's attractions, offering a grand ballroom and meeting spaces catering to events; the inclusion of an indoor pool and diverse dining enhance its appeal. However, I feel that significant renovations are needed to recapture its former glory. It has great value, particularly with its spacious rooms and dedicated staff, but I think investment is needed.”
