The only redeeming quality of this hotel was the front desk staff. They were pleasant and helpful. The hotel room was in need of simple maintenance. The headboards were flaking off pleather, the toilet paper holder kept falling off the wall and the shower needed visible repairs. I can appreciate a historic hotel but only if it is kept up. We ate breakfast in the hotel and even thought the food was good it came out completely cold. This was a mediocre hotel experience at best.

I would have loved to give this hotel a 5 star rating because the front desk staff were absolutely wonderful and so was one of the restaurant waiters Sofiane, but unfortunately the room was awful and I had a suite. The carpet was beyond disgusting, the wallpaper had stains and rips throughout the suite, the bathroom trim was painted over a hundred times and had stains everywhere as did the grout in the shower. The bed was very cheap and uncomfortable. The location was not in walking distance to anything and we heard gunshots one night from our room. There were other issues, but these were a few and I’m a very easy guest to please, so this says a lot. I would not stay there again although the lobby area was nice and as pictured
