Hotel is going through renovations and currently only one lift works. Given we were on the third floor it was rather inconvenient to get around the hotel. The staff were lovely and very helpful for checking in and out. The rooms are ok. Nothing special so would not book a delux next time as it was not what we expected to get. Other than that it was a lovely place and very ideal spot PSA. They only clean rooms every 3 days if you remember to put out the door sign

The rooms ate a bit pricy for their size as they are significantly smaller than depicted on the website, and felt a bit crowded for two people given the bathrooms were built-in to the rooms after building construction. Our air conditioning was not working, however this seemed to be fixed by opening the window. The breakfast was lovely, and the location was very quaint. Yet facilities-wise this is a fine stay for a night or so, yet anything longer I would prefer a higher-end hotel

This hotel was really good!! The staff were the standouts. Everyone was friendly, helpful and always willing to give suggestions. I do think cleaning could be a bit better, our room was dusty and the bathroom had mildew stains but nothing that was detrimental to our stay. Location was perfect. As multiple tram lines are nearby. Breakfast and the restaurant were perfect
