Old charm is fine, however, people should be aware that rooms are creaky, have no TV's, no landlines in case of an emergency in the room, some bathrooms have drafts. Also, the rooms with a shared bathroom are not properly advertised, and some people are surprised when they arrive and find out their room has a shared bathroom. The day of my arrival, I got there late and was planning to just eat something at the hotel -not possible because of a private event- which was not communicated in advance.
