Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable but felt a bit cramped with views of buildings or parking lots. The service was excellent, especially for mobility impaired travelers, and the friendly staff offered us a breakfast voucher as a gesture of goodwill. The location was fantastic for exploring the city, but I wouldn't choose to stay here again. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some tasty options but seemed a bit overpriced. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're looking for value and convenience.
The hotel rooms were on the small side, and unfortunately, there was no air conditioning during my stay. The staff tried to help by providing a fan, but it wasn't very effective. However, the historic nature of the building meant expecting cozy rooms. Although the price was a bit high, I won't be returning to this hotel.
The hotel had some safety concerns with the room not meeting expectations, but the staff were pleasant and helpful. The location was convenient and close to various venues and restaurants. The dining experience was mixed, with some items being exceptional while others not worth the price.
