Charming Stay Downtown
convenient location friendly staff members variety options
The location proved convenient with easy access to nearby attractions. The staff members were friendly and helpful, offering prompt assistance with any inquiries. Breakfast was a good experience (i loved the fresh pastries!) and offered a wide variety of options. I enjoyed the overall atmosphere.
My room faced a busy street. The noise levels were high, especially during peak traffic hours. i found it hard to relax. I wish i had known this beforehand.

excellent service fresh ingredients worn decor flaking paint
the staff showed excellent service, being helpful and friendly. breakfast included lovely fresh ingredients and tasted great. customer service at both reception and in the restaurant was great.
the decor seems worn. the stair carpets looked threadbare, and the decor looked to have flaking paint. also, the shower offered a simple choice between too hot and too cold, with little middle ground.

decent stay, some issues noticed.
street noise hard bed
the room was quite warm, i had to open a window. the noise from the street below made it hard to sleep. the curtains did not block out enough light from a streetlight outside, so the room remained bright all night. i also found the bed to be too firm for my liking.
