It was nice that the hotel always had fresh water and coffee in the lobby throughout the day. One day coming back from shopping they had a cookie bar which i thought was very cute. The hotel is older which adds to the charm but there is only one elevator on property which was slow at times

We had a wonderful stay. The staff, especially the front desk staff, were extremely accommodating to our myriad requests. The hotel itself is a solidly 4 star facility with an antique / shabby chic vibe that perfectly matches the city it resides in. The hotel however is thankfully run much more efficiently than the city it resides in. Many Michelin worthy restaurants within walking distance.
