Convenient to walk around historic district. Rooms need to be updated. Amenities lacking, NO coffee maker or ironing board in room. No bottled water in room. Basics!

Susan, thank you for your feedback. We offer complimentary coffee everyday in front of our restaurant. We are also in the process of updating our nooks on each floor with coffee makers. We have a steamer in our guests room and iron and iron boards upon request. We hope to be able to service you again soon.

I was amazed that the room was dirty. There is a huge marble table in front of the couch and tv that was covered with water marks and stains and apparently not cleaned. We were on the third floor and it was unbelievably noisy. A light in the room kept flashing all night long and couldn’t be turned off. And there was no room service so we had to go down and order the food and bring it back to the room ourselves. And to add insult to injury THERE’S NO COFFEE!
