This hotel is truly a gem and we will definitely come back again. The location is fantastic, public bus in walking distance and so are many other things. The hotel, though old, has such a amazing charm, which made it 100% worth it. The staff must kind and helpful and always ready to be of assistance. We had an amazing time. Thank you

Liked: Cleanliness

Disliked: Room comfort

It's a nice hotel, a little shabby and down-at-heel in places (carpets with black tape over the worn areas). The member of staff who greeted us on arrival was not very friendly or welcoming and gave us a room key that wasn't activated. The worst thing was how hot the room was. There is no aircon and it was hard to sleep, you start sweating as soon as you get out of the shower, etc. It's not cheap so I'd expect aircon in a place like this. The window only opened a crack and didn't help much. Well served by buses around the city. Didn't have breakfast there so can't comment. Cleaner knocked at 8.20am when we were still in bed! Overall somewhat disappointing for the money.

Beautiful old hotel with the best bedroom we've ever stayed in. Massive comfortable 4 poster bed. Don't expect modernity in the room, as that is not its charm, but it's lovely. Staff are excellent as well and the food is good in the restaurant
