Had a great stay - it’s an older building so expect creaky floors and smaller rooms but the character of the place is amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

The only thing going for this hotel is the location. Other than that it is over priced for what they offer. They have a cleanliness issue. Maintenance needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency and the food both evening and breakfast was dire.
