I like this hotel and have stayed here several times. It’s old, which I think gives it a certain charm. It also makes for thick plaster walls which keep things quiet. Only issue with the room was that the towel rack was just about to come off the wall. When we first walked in there was a pile of towels on the bathroom floor; we assumed they were left from the previous guest. Then we realized they had fallen off the leaning towel rack. The bed was very comfortable. I love the ceiling fan!

Very small rooms. We had a four day stay and when we asked for the room to be cleaned we had to go down to the lobby to pick up the towels. They don’t make beds That bothered me. Bathroom is 2 feet away from bathroom. So if one of us went to the bathroom, the light would wake you or the sound of piss hitting into the toilet. Won’t be returning there

The hotel was very nostalgic and was like a trip back in time. Food was great and the staff was friendly. The elevator was very slow and there was no desk in the room, but that was part of the old time charm. Only real negative was the ice machine was noisy and my room was right next to it. I will stay there again.

Budget travelers dream

Bed was comfortable, water was hot, plenty of space, and the free breakfast was cooked to order! We were competely satisfied! Can’t beat the price with BF included. There’s a bar next door with great pizza too! I’d recommend for the budget traveler.

Stayed here before, will likely stay here again, but was disappointed in the smell of the elevator, the tiles in our hotel room bathroom were lifting up, and the couch had a huge stain on it. It's a beautiful hotel with lots of history, so I hope for a grant, or Gordon Ramsey, because it could be just as beautiful again.
