Its National Register nomination stated:
The building's striking feature is its attenuated pedimented entrance portico which surmounts the entrance vestibule in the corner where the wings meet. Added in the 1920s, it appears to be constructed of standard commercially available members.[2]
The hotel was destroyed by fire in 1979.[3]
