Great location!

Location was great, clean, only thing is that our room was on the third floor, the hot water took several minutes to warm up and the pressure was difficult to shower with.

Liked: Cleanliness
The third-floor Bracy Room is too small for the price—no table, chair, desk or wastebasket. Also, no water in the cold tap at the basin (the shower was fine). The bed was comfortable. As expected, the floorboards in an old house are creaky.

Pros: great location, plenty of parking, nice downstairs sitting room, awesome onsite breakfast cafe. Highly responsive by text and a billing error was resolved immediately. Things that made it 4 instead of 5 stars for me. We stayed in the Jordan room on the second floor. No in room tea kettle or coffee maker, so we had to go downstairs for coffee; that wouldn't have been terrible, but that space is one entrance to the very busy breakfast cafe, so don't go downstairs in your undies, lol. Bathroom was huge but almost no counter space for our things. Lighting in the room was sparse and dim. Worst thing is that the Jordan room is directly over the extra table space for the breakfast cafe, so you get all the noise and chatter. You will not be sleeping in because the cafe opens at 8.
