Skip the restaurant
Guests say they weren't impressed with the food quality or service at the hotel's on-site restaurant. With so many eateries in the local area, you might be better off exploring beyond the hotel's doorstep.
negative:
A bit outdated
Guests who have stayed here noted that some of the décor and furniture needs replacement. The building is older, but rooms are generally in good condition. If you prefer modern, sleek design, this hotel probably isn't for you.
negative:
Temperature in rooms is finicky
Rooms come equipped with thermostats, but even still, guests had issues with rooms running too cold or too warm. If you need assistance with the thermostat or want to report an issue, simply alert the staff and they should be happy to accommodate you.
