Room was quite dated, uncomfortable hard bed. Poor water pressure in shower and a musty smell in bathroom. The only good thing about the hotel is the location.

Disliked: Amenities
Rooms are tired and walls are thin. Could hear the guy next to us snoring all night. Neighbour had music on so loud they may as well have been in our room. When we first arrived, our room had no running water, then the 1st morning we had no hot water for a shower.

This hotel has very good amenities but a building in a so-so condition. It’s a character hotel that needs to be renovated. The wi-fi is terrible. The bed could have been better. However I could not have asked for a better location. The property should be updated to be fully restored or modernized.
