Charming, well-appointed older hotel ideally located downtown. Our king room was roomy and well appointed. We enjoyed our stay here but guests should know that on weekends the karaoke bar downstairs is loud until about 2am both with with both music and drunks spilling out after closing. Bring earplugs. Also, no coffee service is provided in the room or in the lobby area.
We have stayed here before, and our experiences have been consistently good! My only complaint is lack of coffee either in the rooms, or in the lobby. On very cold mornings, walking to Cafe Nero is not ideal.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
To be fair, this is not a bad hotel. The staff are warm and gracious. Great location.
Bad: no in-room coffee maker, but happy to charge you mini-bar style for ‘instant coffee’ but with no ready access to the requisite steeped water.
Umm…the lift (elevator) is an ‘experience’. I ultimately elected to simply use the stairs.
And worse by far is that (at least) if you are on the 2nd floor, you are ‘treated’ to the sounds of The BoomBox from open til closing time …incessant and non-stop bass thump…not ideal if your a lighter sleeper. More power to you if you love partying all night …
So, all in all, the Dean is not bad but certainly doesn’t represent any lodging value .
Did not have an iron to offer. (Did have a steamer but did not use b/c we had our own.
Hangers on wall were oddly spaced and did not have any “closet” space between items.
Bar way not open but was able to use free drink at coffee shop. Ample options and the barista was very nice and the drinks were delicious!
