It was a beautiful place, very comfy, the colors were spectacular and it is in a very good location. The only problem is we were there 3 days and there was no cleaning of our room, we quickly ran out of soap. Also Expedia says that the check in is at 7am, but the check in was actually at 3pm. Luckily, they let us check in before.

The staff was great! Very helpful and had great suggestions for places to eat and things to do. We arrived a few minutes early and she let us go ahead and check in. Can't say enough positive about the staff. The hotel itself has a lot of "character". A little rough around the edges but it was convenient to the parade we wanted to attend. Overall we have certainly had much worse experiences.

There are shops in walking distance. Easy parking, great air-conditioning in the room just a strong stench of perfume seem to be sprayed to cover up a stale smell. Not a pleasant smell, especially for someone who has asthma or suffer with allergies. The upstairs walkway has old weak wood in certain areas. Overall, it’s a very historical hotel with a bit of old world charm. It’s just time for some repairs to be done.
