Liked: Staff & service
The Rex *is what it is* - an old-school affordable hotel that looks like something from a John Lee Hooker music video. For some, that's the appeal. For others, you'll get the luxury you want from a pricier place. Personally I love that you can stay here and walk downstairs for an excellent jazz show.
