Sorry, but tried to keep an open mind but i can't. I heard horry stories from friends that stayed there. Broken lights, hard bed, broken elevator, loud.... but at nearly $100 per night, and walkable to many places, i thoguht I'd try. My room was not made up. Dirty sheets everywhere. The room smelled. Trash was not taken out. Toilet was FULL and had flies. Red stain all around yhe end tsbke which i tried to convince myself was fruit punch, but it likely wasn't. Aside from that, very loud! I coukd hesr everything and everywhere. Woke up several time to cars, hallway chatter...The staff was great and apologized many times. Fully refunded my charges right away.

NO hot water at all in the entire hotel. The front desk knew about this and didn’t disclose it when we checked in. Hallways smelled of marijuana & we’re noisy with kids.

The hotel is very old and the hallways smell like smoke. The rooms were clean but they didn’t have extra blankets or pillows. The bed was very uncomfortable. The TV is tiny. Overall not the best experience but very cheap.

Nice old building, it felt cozy. I didn’t like that my room was next to the elevator and kept being woken up the entire morning due to the noise.

We have stayed here a few times before but this was mildly disappointing. our first room didn’t have running water so we had to wait to move. Our second room was not very pretty to be in and shower was so tiny and had no water pressure. We ended up leaving a night early bc there was no hot water after about 20 min and we just didn’t want the haste of moving rooms again. We know it’s an old hotel ans all but it was not relaxing or enjoyable bc of that. The front desk agent didn’t ask or acknowledge why we were leaving a full night early which was kind of rude

The man at the front desk was extremely helpful. I unfortunately had to check out due to no hot water in my room . And the shower wouldn’t even turn to shower it only ran like a bath tub. It was cute but I gotta shower so I left.

Room was hot, tried to change and they told me I wasn’t checked in even though I checked in and my card was charged. Couldn’t refund me because they couldn’t find my booking even though when I checked in there was no issue finding my information. Someone was smoking in the room, the whole hallway smelt.

TV didn’t work reported to front desk two times, nothing room had water stains on ceiling and window valances, toilet seat was stained and bed blanket old dingy and looked as if bleach stains on it. The bed very uncomfortable and made noise every time you sat or moved on it. I never complain but this was unacceptable.
