Historic building
The history of the hotel very interested. Everything looks old, outdated, but the room is comfortable and the view is nice. Staffs are friendly. There is hot tub and swimming pool, but we are too tired to use it

The hotel was the bomb in the day but sadly no longer. While the room was clean and spacious the clientele was a bit sketchy.
