The hotel decor was special! i found unique touches everywhere i looked. the staff welcomed our dog with a lovely pack. it was nice to see sourdough bread offered at breakfast. Not many places have that option, i thought. the hotel's quirky design.
the light-up mirror in the bathroom wasn't working for me, so shaving was a bit difficult. it was a very small inconvenience though!

Overrated and Overpriced, Honestly

loud musicuncaring staff
The room décor was quirky, I will grant them that. Sadly, it did not make up for the noise at night. Loud music from the bar went on until late. Staff didn't seem to care when I mentioned it the next morning. SLEEP? Forget about it.

I stayed in the 'classic double room' and it was quite small. the noise from the bar was excessive. I found it hard to sleep before 1 am. this was disappointing. I'd hoped for a quieter experience.
