This was a very cool property I’m very glad I chose it. The room while a little dated was clean and comfortable. It was a hike up to the property but worth it. There are other hotels with easier access to the city center, but the view from this property is amazing.

A very unique and charming hotel with a great staff and wonderful views! Only downside is no elevator and if you are on top floor with heavy luggage it’s a little annoying. Other than that love it!

Very nice stay

Very impressive hotel. Just two things to mention: expect noise from the trains (railway tracks nearby). Can’t be improved. Wifi with regular interruptions (hopefully, can be improved)).

Stock standard

It’s an ordinary hotel which was fine to us as we were only spending 1 night. Nothing fancy, nothing bad. The hotel does have a steep driveway but we coped just fine in our rental to get up.

Clean and comfortable

Hotel was decent, what you would expect for the price. I don't recommend bringing a car as the driveway is steep and narrow and the parking is tight. The room was clean and comfortable.
