Staff is great, clean enough but has not aged well.
Location was excellent. Our room 203 was horrible. No chair , shower had black mold . No a/c control available in order to operate. Bathroom door wouldn’t close. But the absolute worst was the tv reception and picture which never improved even trying the remote. The toilet is so close to the wall you can’t even sit on it correctly. Never again will I stay recommend
Grwat lication. Comfortable rooms. Breakfast very average. Cocktail hour just a lousy wine no beer or spirits. Staff not helpful or courteous.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location was the best part as the hotel is literally in walking distance to almost everything. Overall the stay was decent but there was mold in my initial room which caused me to get very sick. They did offer a room immediately once I notified them so I will commend them on that. Staff were friendly and everything else was good.
charming facility with amenities such as happy hour( wine & cheese), breakfast. Bathroom gets flooded as shower is only separated by a cloth shower curtain, sink is very small. There were no electrical outlets near bed or small desk/dresser. The AC is a residential window unit that although modern roared frequently throughout the night 3 feet away from the bed. Uncomfortable mattress on top of a wooden platform. Wifi did not work.
Convenient location within walking distance of several restaurants and tourist sites. Wi-Fi worked great. The room was small, so be wary of that if you need space.
Hotel was very cute & comfortable and I love the historic vibe. Does not necessarily have all the bells and whistles of a modern hotel (rooms are pretty small), but is in a really excellent location. Unfortunately we were not able to turn the AC on in our room and had to get an employee to do it, but other than that it was quite nice.
