Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms and comfortable beds. The hotel's interior design, particularly the beautiful spiral staircase with stained-glass windows, is a recurring highlight.

mixed feelings after the stay

main areadoor hangercleaner action
the location was in a main area, which i did find acceptable.
the room was not ready right at check-in time, i waited an hour. the cleaner ignored the door hanger that said 'do not disturb' and opened my door early. i could hear the neighbors, soundproof was so awful.

the staff displayed attentiveness. the location proved convenient. i noticed a classic hotel feel, executed with efficiency and attention to detail. the breakfast service was amazing!!!
i found the air conditioning unit rattled constantly, no matter the setting. during the night, when everything was quiet, it made it difficult to sleep. the air conditioning did not function during the night anyway. it was warm and stuffy in the room, so i left the window open to sleep. the street noise bothered me.

The staff offered valuable recommendations! The characterful lobby was good and the rooms were spacious. Air conditioning ensured relief from the heat. It was GREAT.
The hotel could use some updating. It displays a somewhat tired elegance. The breakfast quality needs improvement. The process felt a bit slow.
