I would not recommend this hotel. I expected much more when reading these reviews but must have been staying at a completely different hotel than them. There was no working a/c in either of our rooms. The carpet was disgusting. The TVs turn on but there are no available channels. They say “king bed” but these were clearly queens. It was very rundown throughout. The front desk never answers the phone. The only redeeming quality are the restaurants they have. My advice, stay elsewhere and just dine there.

The bathroom in our room needed a good clean. The staff were friendly and the room was large. There were cobwebs on the stairs and the glass in the communal areas needed a clean. Although we had no big issues we couldn’t stay here again

We liked the location and ambience of entrance. The room was super hot which was weird because it was cool outside (mid to low 60 degree F). We were there 4 nights and tea wasn't replaced ( 2 teabags for 2 people) and we never had hot water to shower. Didn't clean room on third day when gone from 10-4. The first night we took cool showers because the water never got hot. The next day the hot water was brown and we were advised against using it, but were told at night you have the run the hot water long enough for it to circulate thru the whole building? So the next night when water was less brown we attempted to run hot water. After 25 minutes and no hot water, called down and they said they'd called a plumber. Never offered any solution. Had to beg for compensation. We eventually got 20% off one day and 30% for another day.

This was a fantastic location with an amazing cocktail bar right next door and a beautiful waterfall in the courtyard. The only downside was with the water, the hotel was experiencing issues and there was no hot water.

Great location, historical building, decent sized room. The room itself needs deep cleaning and repair. Stained carpets, a toilet that doesn’t flush unless you try 5-6 times, and it off gases sewer smell continuously. Some bathroom floor tiles are loose, and the AC doesn’t work. - a fan was provided instead. The staff are very nice, but they lost track of which rooms were occupied and gave another guest a key to my room, and they walked in on me in bed. If the room was well maintained, this stay could easily have been excellent due to the location.
