The elevator was broken when we checked in and they did not notify us in advance. The front desk was indifferent to it. It was fixed the next day but I have bad knees so and told them, but their attitude was tough luck, climb to the third floor. The hotel itself is very funky and cool. Its well located and it could have been an amazing visit were it not for some of the people at the front desk who don't understand the meaning of hospitality. The breakfast is okay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We were chewed up by bed bug bites. Run down hotel with no elevator and no one to help us with suitcases dragging them up a winding marble staircase. Hotel is on a noisy street and you constantly awakened all night by traffic. Drain in sink didn’t work properly. The front desk did nothing to reduce our bill due to all our bites. Kept saying they had no authority to give us one night free out of three nights booked. This hotel needs complete rehabbing. Stay away!

Fabulous stay. The lift didn’t work for the several days I was there, so my room on the third floor was a bit (woof) difficult to run back and forth to. Service was otherwise fabulous. Great location !

This property is a lot of fun. It is stylishly decor has a lot of personality. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous. I stayed in the Georgian mini suite, and it was exceptional. The only slight drawback is that I could hear slight thumping coming from the club two stories below.
