This hotel advertise a really nice yellow building except that's not where they house guest. Guest get to stay in a run down blue building at the back and that street looks sketchy. Once you get off that street the neighbourhood is lovely. Trainees are clueless as to what is going on. Also they double booked my room for the entire time and did not care to inform me of this. My impression is that they are careless and heartless.

It's a beautifull historical building but needs a bit of restoration to it. There was an old smell coming out of the wall and you could see mold here and there. The staff was very friendly and there was a very kind manager that helped us very well.
