It was very clean and quiet. We were within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The staff was very friendly. Keep in mind it is a older hotel but it was well worth what we paid for it. Breakfast was okay.

Wonderful location, though the rooms were a little on the small side. Great buffet breakfast and the wine and cheese reception was a highlight .

I loved the quaintness of the hotel. But could use some renovations in the rooms. Rooms are small and bed hard but that was ok with me. The problem was temperature. It was uncomfortably warm. I was told there was just one heating system for the entire building and to use the air conditioner in our room . But it was broken. We had the window open in 40 degrees temperature all night but not much air came in the room due to the configuration of the windows. Don’t think I will stay there again.
