Fantastic Stay in a Unique Hotel

easy walkfun decorhelpful staffmissing television

The location was GREAT, within easy walking distance to attractions. The room had fun decor, air conditioning and it was quite comfortable. I found a wonderful bistro a few doors along. The staff were very helpful. It was a magical stay, as I had dreamed of this visit for years!!!

I found no television in the room, disappointing. I think a television is a basic amenity for a hotel room in this price range. This is something they could easily improve.

I was pretty frustrated. The room's AC didn't work, so heating was nonexistent. It felt chilly throughout the night. Check-in was a disaster. I never received check-in instructions. I was stuck outside at 1 AM and had to contact customer support to get the door code. The owner sent instructions two days later. This did not improve my trip.
