Ok stay but should have been better for the price
While the hotel lobby and rooms are very nice, the rooms were quite warm, where we thought there was a heater on, despite the outside temp being on the cooler side. A fan was provided but could not keep the windows open at night due to the loud noise and music from the surrounding bars.

For the price I expected a little more amenities and a more upgraded property. No air conditioning. The room was stifling hot when we arrived. The windows were old and only partially opened allowing small air flow into the room. It is noisy but to be expected in that location. Great location and easy to walk to various bars pubs restaurants. Rooms were clean, pillows felt old and hard, and the mattress also felt well used and old.
