The building is absolutely gorgeous on the outside and the lovely man that greeted my partner and I at the front desk was so sweet and friendly!! We were very excited to see the room in person as the pictures looked very nice, but once we settled in there, we were a little disappointed... The bathroom was beautiful but the shower was so dirty!! There was multi-coloured soap scum in the grout on the walls, lining the top edge of the bath where it meets the tiles, and all around the handle to turn the shower on. There was also a lot of calcium build up on the shower head. The shower pressure was good though and the bath part seemed clean but I think if I were to come here again, I will be bringing my own cleaning supplies. Also, the air conditioning unit did not work and the fan that was also provided for the room was extremely loud so it was a very hot night for us. Otherwise, there was a nice view of the fountain out in the backyard and it was a very quiet place to stay in. Overall we give it maybe a 6/10? Probably would stay here again just because of how great the parking was and how pretty the building is lol

4.5 star looking, but 3.5 condition accomodation. Good restaurant/bar and friendly staff overall. Room carpet was worn and there were unfortunately cockroaches.
