The hotel room was clean and updated. The air conditioner worked VERY in our room. I will give you heads up though, because the hotel is very near to the historic section. There are restaurants, bars, cafés that do have bands in the night hours. We happen to be on the side of the hotel that had some type of band playing right next-door. You could very easily hear the band and the singer through the wall. When you check in, you are given a paper that states that there is music close to the area and that earbuds are given out courtesy to the hotel guest if you need them. Just be worn that if you have trouble sleeping when there’s noise nearby this may not be the place for you. If you’re not bothered by it it’s a great place to stay. I happen to sleep with earbuds in my ears every night with white noise so I was OK. Just giving you a heads up. Place is great though the location is fantastic.
