The rectangular, seven-story building features restrained Spanish Revival architecture details. A cut stone entrance wing projects toward the street, leading to a double-leaf brass door flanked by casement windows. An ornamented parapet features a shield and foliate design with the hotel's name also detailed. A porch wraps around the hotel's entrances.[3]
