Anonymous, Oct 2016

Pros. Nothing

Cons. The rooms do not match the pictures what so ever. The bed for sure had to have bed bugs and the restroom had roaches. I didn't even stay for a few hours before I left. Reminded me of a room out of AHS.

Pros. The location of this hotel is about the only good thing I can say. It's right in Old City and just about anything you could want to do is within walking distance.

Cons. They were very misleading about the size and the amenities. Our "seating area" was a wooden chair. It was not very clean. The worst part though was the mouse that was sharing our room... Very disappointed in this hotel. Will not be back. Ever.

8.8Very good
Anonymous, May 2015

Pros. I loved their location and the vintage feel the old building gave.

Cons. It would have been great to get an idea of the history of the building and why it was still standing after so many years.

Brian, Apr 2015

Pros. For the location, the price is pretty good

Cons. This hotel is a dump. Some people call it character, but that's nonsense. You don't automatically get to say something has character just because it's in an old building. Dirty carpets, broken down beds, busted blinds, missing ceiling tiles, leftover dirty laundry from previous guests, showers that don't drain, and a staff that's only there a third of the day are not "character" features. They're poor maintenance issues. Don't go here unless you're strapped for cash and plan on spending very little time in the room
