There was no way to control the temperature of the room. The whole Hotel and were extremely dry , such that I had nose bleeds. Lots of charm, but a brutal place to sleep.

Cons (-) Kayak provided incorrect information in the search for the hotel. Kayak app stated that breakfast was free. However, when we got to the hotel we were told that was incorrect. After calling kayak customer service and being on the phone for 30min, we were ignored even after pointing out the issue . Hotel was great, kayak customer service 1/5.

Pros (+) Classic beautiful Hotel. Friendly Staff, especially the health club receptionist, who was great!
Cons (-) Too old. Need refurbishing. Stained carpets, cracked ceilings, too many extension cords. Position of coffee maker hard to get to which makes making that morning cup a great hassle. Toilet we had in our bathroom was so close to the wall and door is in the way.
