This is an old, budget hotel with wonderful staff. The bathrooms are down the hall and the rooms are old and worn. But if you don’t mind that and are looking for a low price, this is a good spot. Staff is excellent.

What a beautiful hotel. The bed was very comfortable. Just to note, there are lots of stairs in this historic hotel. It is close to the hospital and lots of restaurants and shopping. I will definitely stay here again!
