mixed experience, some issues need addressing

spacious suiteintermittent water supplypoor sink design
the senior suite double room was adequately spacious.
I encountered a significant problem with the hot water. for several days, the hot water supply was intermittent and unreliable, which caused considerable inconvenience. the bathroom sink design was also poor. The faucet was difficult to use and caused water to splash everywhere (a design flaw that needs correction).

Excellent Stay in a Historic Building

spacious roomtall ceilinglarge closetlimited hours
The rooms were very spacious with tall ceilings. I appreciated an extra large closet. The space was helpful. The hotel lobby has period pieces and coordinated colors! I found it a treat. Breakfast was great. I ordered an omelette and decaf coffee.
The gym hours were limited. Reception opened the gym after 7 a.m. The gym was also small. I think more reliable hours are helpful.

I wasn't thrilled with the lack of proper blackout curtains. the pharmacy across the street had a bright, flashing sign. it really interfered with sleep. also, the water pressure in the shower was barely adequate. I expected more from a hotel like this.
