Bizarre, unsafe, and unwelcoming

This was an incredibly uncomfortable stay. The worst part was the security. Although it was not mentioned anywhere in the policies they sent ahead of time or on any visible sign in the lobby, you are not allowed to leave the hotel with your room key. This was not explained to me when I checked in. When I returned to the hotel, I was berated and gaslit by the staff, who told me it was their most important rule and that I wasn’t paying attention when they explained it (they never did). The next day, when I asked for my key, an unfamiliar staff member handed me my key without confirming my identity. I assume he would’ve handed it to anyone who asked for that room. Felt very unsafe for the remainder of the trip. The AC unit made a loud clicking noise all night from water dripping onto it from the unit above. Also, the lobby is filled with catholic paraphernalia (pictures of popes and religious leaders, free rosaries, etc) which is fine but odd that it wasn’t mentioned or made clear in the listing or photos. I did not feel safe, comfortable, or welcome. Will not return, would not recommend to anyone.

Old but quiet

The staff was courteous. The room was surprisingly quiet. It was an old building, the shower was not in good shape, 4th floor had no WiFi but the AC was most quiet I have ever experienced at a lodging.

religious house!

Booked because of good reviews but this hotel was not for us and in our opinion should not be on hotels.com booking s. It is a religious house with crosses on the walls and a weird religious atmosphere. The room was small and the shower room was in need of a make over, The radiator in the shower room was rusty and everything was a little shabby. Breakfast was good with a good choice of hot & cold food.
