Art Deco Masonic Hotel

Art Deco Masonic Hotel

8/10 Good
"A beautiful art deco building and room. We enjoyed the stay except for one incident. Another resident wandered into our room (by accident) because the interconnected door between rooms was not locked. We felt unsafe after that incident and was an invasion of our privacy. Thankfully the person at reception came to our room and locked the interconnected door properly. We would have given our stay 5 stars if it wasn’t for this incident."
