TV didn’t work reported to front desk two times, nothing room had water stains on ceiling and window valances, toilet seat was stained and bed blanket old dingy and looked as if bleach stains on it. The bed very uncomfortable and made noise every time you sat or moved on it. I never complain but this was unacceptable.

The property is charming and quaint.The area around the property is lovely to walk around and enjoy shopping and dining. I would suggest that the hotel provide coffee in the mornings. The small outdoor restaurant downstairs has good food.

Very disappointing
Disappointing. Room has seen better days. Mold in bathroom. Missing one of the towel rods in the bathroom. Headboard coming apart, hallway carpet stained. Hot water was warm at best without using any cold water. Very noisy at night. No usb ports in room. Parking meters in front are turned into valet parking at 5 pm. Could be a real gem of a hotel. Would not recommend.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Liked the convenience and Neuva restaurant. I’m into art deco which was cool. The evening manager tried to help as best he could. Downside was trying to get hot water for showers, housekeeping doesn’t know how to make beds, stains on the walls, linens got progressively worse, although clean, we did not have power to some plugs or TV the last day. We knew the area as we had lived there but were disappointed that this wonderful place is in such disrepair!

Hotel smells musky and stale. Beds were horrible. Giant ridge down the middle, precenting us from sleeping without falling against each other constantly. Bathrooms are tiny and pretty hard to use. Not worth the savings of a cheap room.
