Very nice decorations but bed mattress was worn and stiff. And though there was a thermostat I couldn't change the temperature in the room. The television was tiny.

Beautiful building with lovely furnishings. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking is suboptimal, with a tiny parking lot in the rear, and off-property parking. Breakfast is not included. While our room was nicely furnished and the bed was very comfortable, the room was small and the bathroom tiny. The view out our window was of a fire escape and a wall. The higher-prices rooms are surely nicer.
