The pool was unfortunately closed for repairs, and the old pipes made some noise when we used the shower, but other than that this hotel was maintained quite well, and has tons of historic character. Its location downtown is very convenient, and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

If you are a fan of old world/vintage hotels with historic architecture, this hotel is for you. Just be mindful that there aren’t a lot of amenities such as a fridge and a microwave to store or cook food. The hotel is a couple of blocks away from the convention center.
