Location is perfect.
Location is perfect for everything downtown, the rail station, bars and restaurants. The staff is amazing! Keep in mind it is a historic hotel so it’s quaint but not modern.

We were woke up at 1:30am a told we were given the wrong room & had to move. First the clerk downstairs tried to enter our room without calling or knocking. We said after being startled, who is there & they announced office & you need to move. We opened the door & the clerk , another man & his two kids were standing looking at us in our pajamas wanting us to move. So we gathered our belongings & moved . Never got back to sleep that night since it now was after 3am.

We did not like the fact that it was sooo noisy at night we could not sleep. We did not realize until we looked at it from the outside that the window opened from the top and was open. It was that way when we got there. Black out curtains would sure be nice to block out the light when you are trying to sleep. The breakfast was not great .

Had a great stay. Most of the staff were fantastic. There was an older lady there (bob haircut) that could be quite rude. Made inappropriate comments. Didn’t bother us the other staff members made up for it. Hotel is well kept and in a great location.

Great staff, but hard to get a good night's sleep.
The staff were lovely. If you are a light sleeper, this is NOT the hotel for you!! It's lovely because it's a historic building, but that's also why it's so noisy. The bar is beautiful, but it's a bummer that its closed. It's only open for breakfast. The breakfast isn't good for people with food intolerances either.
