Older property with a lot of charm. I stayed during the week and it was very quiet. The staff was great. Very friendly and helpful. A/C worked beautifully (very important to me). I would probably stay again due to price and location. A few things could be improved - for the most part the room was clean but there were some areas that were caked with dust. No soap for the sink, but I travel with my own, and the bed was just ok.

Hotel is definitely outdated in the rooms. Hotel itself outside of the rooms was fine. Air temperature was not contestant at all throughout the night and the linens being clean was questionable. The air vents needed a major cleaning as well. Overall it was okay just for us to lay our head for the night and the terrace was a nice touch for having drinks before going out. The bathroom was super spacious also.

Old fashioned, in a good way

I had to attend some meetings outside and also work in my room for several hours. I found my room extremely comfortable, roomy and well appointed. I was able to work and rest just fine.
