The property is fine but could use renovation. I am not very sensitive to noise, but there was hardly any sound insulation, so I could hear walking and speaking from my upstairs and next-door neighbors later at night.

Quiet Gem

I loved our stay here. The location was great for seeing things, and while I don't know if the hotel is in its prime, I felt luxurious enough! And for the price, I felt like I got a huge bargain. Small complaints: The showers aren't great (but the bed may be my favorite hotel bed in a loooong time), and it is hard to find a reasonably priced quick breakfast. There is really nothing nearby, so best strategy is to stock up your room.
