Great location, spacious room, upgraded bathroom, excellent breakfast. All good except NOISE from upstairs. Sound insulation is horrible. Someone checked in mid-night. Then you heard strong steps, chains movement. The hotel front desk should be a little bit smart. Let earlier check-in guests to take high floor rooms. That is why I give 4 stars.

Perfect choice for me. Location was ideal. I could walk to everything easily. Hotel was stunning, clean and well managed. I was concerned about noise because of location but beautiful built older building with solid wood doors took care of that completely.

The staff was very polite and helpful, the building interior while a bit dated was very clean. The outside was also in good shape. The entrance is a bit hectic with people and also floods very easily when it rains on the side walk. Overall the location is very convenient to attractions and I would stay there again.

Hotel is very nice and clean. The biggest problem are the walls are extremely thin and guests shout in adjoining rooms until 2am each night. For the price, a quiet night's sleep should be a minimum.
