The Crane is a very nice property with a laid back atmosphere. The rooms are a little dated and can be upgraded but doable. All of the staff is very friendly expectionally Ms Joan. I was here last year and decided to come back. The waitress Shakenka at the 1887 bar is very hard working and straight forward. I like that. Noone else seemed to be working as hard as her except bartender. Monica

The environment was very inviting. The music in the back ground made the atmosphere magical. Shakenya was extra nice. We want her to be our host on our return.
