The location was great. Staff was very friendly, and the property was beautifully renovated. Elevator was available. Suggestion for improvement: install AC units in rooms on top floors. Our room on the 3rd Fl. already heated up quite well during the day in May. Cool nights and open windows helped but might not be effective during a hot summer. Also, please install a lock box in rooms. I will stay here again.

The hotel was loverly and friendly . The rooms were clean and respectable. Great Breakfast and service. My only complaint was about the noise from Bar across road and people leaving quite late mainly students. However it did mention this on website that some times it could be noisy due to bar below hotel . No mention of bar and terrace across the road.

I had an unusually bad experience with this property, so I am writing this review to warn other travellers. I travel a lot, and this is the first time I've had such a bad experience with a hotel. Note that I stayed in May 2025. 1) The pictures of the hotel on Expedia make the hotel look fancy and nice. No, the building and the rooms are very old and shabby. My room was so small that I had to put my clothes on the floor. 2) It is extremely noisy with an outside bar located in the hotel. The hotel will warn you about this noise situation ONLY after you have booked the property, and - as in my case - they will later deny any responsibility by claiming that they have warned you about the noise in advance. 3) My room was located next to a huge building's air conditioner outside, with the constant noise throughout the night. I could not sleep the entire night. 4) Be aware that regardless of how you choose to pay (in advance or at the hotel via their machine), they will demand you present the physical credit card at check-in, and the receptionist will type up the secret code from your credit card to their records. I have never experienced this practice before, and I don't think it can be legal.

Avoid on a Saturday night

The rooms are a little small, and the walls are paper thin, which is reasonable given the price... BUT - there is a club in the basement, and it's so loud, you might as well be in there. All the way from about 7 till just gone midnight. We stayed on a Saturday night, so other nights you might get lucky.
