Check in and check out was fast and easy. Room was spacious. Bed was very low, not easy for someone with bad knees use. No wash cloths were provided. Floors were very dusty and needed vacuuming.

Unique historic hotel with many interesting restaurants and shops nearby. Note this is a contactless self-service hotel, with no live staff and everything is by code and text message. This format showed its limitations when I texted them upon arrival there was no iron or ironing board. I did not get an iron until the next day, after I left for my convention with a wrinkled shirt. And the ironing board never showed up over the entire three days! So if anything is missing you are out of luck and they are slow to respond. On the plus side you can park for free on the street and everyone says it is safe.

Very easy to get and return keys. I had a hard time at first getting back to parking garage to get something out of the car, but the service number (Chelsea) responded very quickly and was very helpful. Only talked via text but the staff was very pleasant and patient. Loved the location. Will stay there again next time I need to stay in Alymer
