For the owners/manager’s info

We are generally not fussy travelers, but you should know that the particular room we stayed in (317) was not like others in the hotel (shown in Hotels.com). We like older hotels and understand the difficulty in maintaining them, The bathroom however had been repaired in a manner that showed no attempt to maintain the classic look. There were holes all over the tile and big, messy smears of white filler over the green tile. Also the tv stand was broken and the bed had no headboards (although the mattresses were comfy). Note — the lower “cleanliness” score was for the smell in the halls and room. The room was perfectly clean but had a stronger odor than most older hotels (but we know it is hard to mask the odors that old hotels accrue). Thank for a generally lovely stay and nice staff. I offer this feedback ONLY so you can improve for others. David

Great staff

Great staff and hotel, just research the area a little before you go exploring, towards the civic centre is fine but the other way is definitely confronting. I really liked the staff here.
