Hotel was in the middle of a neighborhood which was quiet but not alot to walk to. Parking is tight, and we parked on the street and carried luggage up a decent incline. The breakfast was great! Cute bar and comfortable area. Would stay again.

Only one elevator available and was broken, we had to push our luggages down the stairs, no air conditioning in the room, no hand lotions either. Bright spot was the staff, they were very helpful and assisted in calling the car rental company for me.

Hotel was ok. Loved the history of it. Rooms were ok and spacious enough. Shower was tricky and had a hard time shutting it off. Room was incredibly hot which made it hard to sleep. There was a fan provided which helped a little. Property was close to restaurants and shopping. Parking was not great. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Limited on site parking and if not available you have to pay a discounted price in a garage a few blocks away. Not convenient and added to the price of the room. Very nice pay for breakfast and quiet comfortable room with a nice bathroom. No air conditioning but a barely adequate portable fan in the room. Friendly staff.

We were on the 5th floor and when you came out of the lift the carpet was dirty and coming away from the metal piece. There was a deep hole in the wall and plaster was coming off the walls in some places. In the bathroom the handrail in the bath was unsafe as it was coming away from the wall. We reported this twice but nobody came to fix it.

The location was a short walk from the city center, but the building itself was old and worn down. The toilet didn’t work in our room, which we didn’t find out until in the middle of the night. No compensation or apologies given. Luckily they had another room we got keys to, to use the bathroom, and of course it was at a different floor and opposite end. Doors slam very loudly, trash was collected outside on the street at 5am. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.
