Let’s just say that this review is 5 start only due to the excellence of the hotel staff. Sorry for the long review, I wish I knew the hotel was under renovation. I wouldn’t have booked it. When we checked in, the front desk informed us that the repairs and maintenance will happen daily between 10-4 pm (no hot water during that time). Even though it’s kinda early for us, we understand and respect it. However, what we didn’t expect was the noise of banging and drilling started at 7:30 am. We were not the only ones upset about it. I felt so bad for the staff. The management should have coordinated better with the time and the sections being repaired. After expressing our concern that we still have few nights left, they moved us to another room on another floor and offered us complementary breakfast. These rooms were newer and half of the size. I am 5’3 115 lb. I couldn’t move around much in the room with my two carryon size suitcases. Unfortunately, the next morning the noise continued and strong smell of tar came in thru the bathroom vent. At this point, we were tired and frustrated. We decided to check out and find another hotel. With the help of Expedia and the hotel manager Andrea, the nights we didn’t stay was refunded and offered 1/2 refund on the last night we stayed. I am grateful for the accommodation. All this being said, wait until renovation is done. This hotel is clean, comfortable, conveniently located and the staff is really friendly.

I was told that I would have Wifi in my room and I asked for assistance twice. The 2nd time they told me they couldn't help and to call a number. I don't think that is my responsibility when you advertise free wifi. I should not be expected to spend my holiday figuring out your wifi problems. Also, there was no hot water during the day which I should have been told before booking so I think some compensation should have been offered for the inconvenience eg. breakfast.

If you'll stay around the end of June, summer, I do not recommend to stay at this hotel. There's no air circulation inside the room and no air condition. At mid-night or early morning, the outside temperature 60F but inside room temperature 95F. Never went down. We stayed from June 19 -23, 2023.

Great location, but shame about the sound-proofing
Location is great. But unfortunately the sound-proofing wasn’t good. I was in a room that was on the 5th floor and faced out onto the communal public gardens - but the noise of the traffic kept me awake periodically throughout the night.
