It’s a hotel with potential because of its charm and location, but it lacks maintenance. We were given a broken bed, the closet doors were in poor condition, and there was very low hot water pressure. The place is clean, but it needs to offer more comfort, including larger beds (it was advertised to us as a queen bed, but I don’t believe it was actually that size).
