Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praised the hotel's central location and its historic, charming atmosphere. However, many reviews highlighted significant issues with bathroom facilities, including cleanliness, maintenance, and shared arrangements. Cleanliness throughout the property was a recurring concern, with several mentions of odors, mold, and general disrepair. Service was generally described as friendly but sometimes inattentive. While the hotel's character and vintage feel were appreciated by some, the lack of modern amenities and upkeep detracted from the overall experience for many guests.
