Great location on princess street, good food and pleasant staff . Table and chairs in the window .
Room 117 on the corner is very small including the bathroom with half a bath a bit more space would of been better .

We were upgraded to a room that faced the main street. It was great to spend down-time sitting in the window and looking down on the street performers. The Old Waverly has a nice breakfast room with attentive staff. All hotel employees were kind and efficient.Rooms were cleaned first thing in the morning after we posted our "please make up the room" door hanger. I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel lift, which chugged along fairly quickly despite the amount of hotel "morning traffic." The hotel was also very convenient for access to Waverly Station, plus it's a short walk to Old Town.
I don't have any serious complaints.
