The walls are very thin and we did not sleep because we could hear people walking through the halls, and teenagers/kids running up and down the halls. The air quality in the room is very stuffy.

I absolutely loved this hotel, it had a unique sense of charm, fabulous food, comfortable bed, very clean and stylish decor. The entrance to the hotel is also very unique, much more personal than others. I only deducted one star on the condition/facilities because the bedside USB ports didn't work properly
