We loved our stay. All staff we encountered were kind and helpful. We felt very safe during our stay. They even stored our luggage for us after we checked out, so that we could continue exploring until we had to leave for the airport.

Overpriced and Dirty

Beware of this misleading hotel that robs you. The valet parking sign says $74 for a whole night, yet they charged my card $84 ($10 extra dollars because of taxes. )What they do is park your car next to the garage that charges $20. I had to wait for 30 minutes for my car to be dropped off after I had requested it. What kind of valet parking is that? The free cold breakfast does not make up for the dirty and overpriced hotel. I will provide pictures and you judge for yourself.

Pretty good stay

For a 3 star hotel its pretty nice and affordable. A few nitpicks I’ll explain tho. 1. The windows don’t have screens so don’t leave them open at night (got attacked by mosquitoes) use the fan in the closet. 2. Coffee machine in the bedroom was very dirty on the inside. Did not use it. 3. Very hot in the room Other than that it was a good stay, breakfast is nice, lounge area is beautiful and even wine and snacks is a great idea.

It’s an old building that’s quirky and cute and the room was spacious and clean. We had a deluxe king room and the mattress was super lumpy and uncomfortable, tossed and turned all night. TV cable was not working and front desk guy was way too chatty, like can’t walk away chatty. Overall for the price it was fine but would recommend elsewhere if you can afford a little higher price point.

Fireplace!

The fireplace turned on by a switch on the wall right next to the bed. Enough said. The building is old. Don’t stay here is you are looking for modern. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good. The pastries were warmed to crispness in the oven before being served. The boiled eggs were still warm. Nice selection of teas.
