Nice old world hotel.

Hotel in an old historic property. Lots of quirky artifacts in the room which is great for travelers. Suite was spacious. Only comment is that suite 11 on the second floor was above the basement bar and the music was loud until midnight when it closed. Upside was that the music was pretty good and I had jet lag so not really an issue.

Gorgeous property and staff were 10/10! Immediate area around the property was run down and didn’t feel particularly safe at night - Would still book though. Couple of noisy bars close by, but music finished by 1am.

No parking at the hotel - on street parking only. Machines were not working and was not able to set up account to pay by mobile as it wouldn’t send SMS to Canadian mobile number.

Fun design lead hotel that felt very homely and comfortable in a mid century imdustrial hipster style. Friendly and efficient staff. Food was good although a pasta option would have been welcome. Top notch overall
