mixed feelings about my stay
dated room disruptive noise
The room i received was not up to par. It felt quite dated and showed signs of wear. the furniture was old, and the carpet seemed like it needed replacing. furthermore, the noise level was disruptive, especially early in the morning from what sounded like cleaning activities.

Charming Historic Stay
local history rooftop pool rooftop bar
I find great honor in the hotel's dedication to local history. The rooftop pool gave me amazing views of the skyline. A functional rooftop bar sits next to the pool. Staff showed me much love.
The room seems somewhat old for my taste. The furniture appears quite aged. The bed did not provide proper support.

I was disappointed by a couple of things . The key was quite heavy and large (it reminded me of something from a museum). I had to leave it at the front desk each time I left the hotel, a bit inconvenient.

The location was very convenient for accessing different parts of the city. The staff members were helpful when I asked for directions. My Double Room was clean upon arrival and was well-kept .
I found some aspects less satisfactory. The breakfast lacked variety . The noise from the street at night was sometimes disruptive. The temperature control in my room was difficult to adjust.
