The property was very stately with a nice pool and workout facilities, but the room we stayed in did not have AC in it. It stayed quite humid throughout the night even with the windows open.

Beautiful building! quiet neighbourhood. Friendly staff and kind service. But very outdated structure. Humid, no AC, no ventilation. ''Make up room" means change towels and empty trash. They don't really clean it. Expedia advertized they have AC and Laundry service but they don't. and it's far from transportation so you need a car.

Q

Slightly disappointed not to find a fridge in the room but, even more disappointed/concerned that, contrary to the Hotels.com booking site, there is no air conditioning in the room as it was one of the main reasons for choosing this hotel. The staff were very helpful and soon managed to provide us with a couple of fans. The food in the restaurant was very nice and reasonably priced.

Lovely hotel

We spent a lovely night. The hotel was comfortable and the atmosphere was calm and peaceful. The stairs were easy to manage. The staff were nice, but I would say that in the dining room, they were short-handed. The food was delicious and the half portion, was just perfect for me. I would definitely go back again.
