NEW COMMERIAL HOTEL - Located at the corner of Main and Mulberry Streets.
As if in conformity with the eternal fitness of things, Logan hotels present a rugged external appearance, like the surrounding hills and are like the hill in another respect, their true worth is not appreciated until one gets within. While it is true Logan cannot boast of a hotel built after fine architectural designs and of imposing uphauled and modernized. Being a hotel man experienced in catering to first class trade, he furnished the house in a manner commensurate with what patrons of high-class hotel would expect. The rooms are large airy and well furnished, the house has been renovated and newly painted and papered in all its parts, the public rooms are large, comfortably furnished in every detail that adds to the comfort and convenience of their patrons. The lady's parlor is something more than comfortable, it is also elegant. That other necessary accessory of every good hotel.
