Staff a little reserved/officious at times. A situation over hotel rules was handled without tact and made me consider moving. Breakfast basic. My room was skipped for cleaning one day. Wifi did not work until the second day and no obvious effort made to fix this when it broke or inform guests when it was back. No apology offered. Door and generalnstaff very helpful. Some.street noise and loud music from neighbouring bar, but I felt this was reasonable/unavoidable for a downtown location.

This is the place to stay if you are looking for a great location, easy access to local historical sites, kind and professional service on every level, a generous breakfast, and a comfortable bed. We stayed for six nights at the Diplomat and will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Truly one of the worst hotels i have stayed at. Right above a night club that was pumping music until 2am every night. The elevator was broken and the breakfast was awful. Booked a double bed on this platform got a single bed.
