It was ok. I stayed for 2 nights and didn’t realize the bedcover had blood on it until late the second night. I was too tired to call anyone. Then I saw a bandaid in the shower drain. I mentioned this to the front counter as I was leaving. The breakfast was the same as all the other hotels. I thought being a boutique hotel it might be a little different and fresher by the reviews. Then the bar was closed on Monday night… that’s kinda why I picked the hotel.
