It’s a beautiful old building, the room was nicely updated. Sits right in the city center making it very convenient to walk everywhere. Staff was super friendly and helpful, minus the GM, he was rude and pretentious.

Great family stay in the heart of Gto

The hotel is in a great location, right in the heart of the city. Everything is easily walkable, and it’s great to be able to stop in easily as you’re moving in different directions to grab things, go to the bathroom. The family suite was excellent for us with kids (ages 4 and 7), and was in a good spot with less noise (rooms overlooking the plaza are louder do to how much fun everyone is having outside). Great stay, great service, great location. Would highly recommend

This properties location is absolutely amazing. It is without a doubt in the center of all the fun. You are walking distance to everything. The staff at the hotel is very helpful and super nice. The hotel is of course dated with no AC and has an un working elevator but it is very much woth the stay for the views.

Don't do it! Price is good, stay is NOT!

I wouldn't stay there again! It would have been nice if I was told that the elevator was out of service before I paid, but of course I wasn't until seconds after I ran my card! 86 steps up with 6 suitcases and 4 backpacks! Funny thing is that not only I was tired but my kids and 15 y/o granddaughter! In addition, ABSOLUTELY NO a/c !!!!! What ?!? And pillows were horrible. Hard, hard, and HARD !! Never staying there again!
