    Lovely old place with hard-working staff from arrival to check-out, really enjoyed it. The location was unbeatable and excellent, not too far away from a large outdoor mosaic sculpture garden. There were commercial centers and a shopping street around the hotel.

    Prime and spectacular location, we were on a quiet side street. The breakfast was more than adequate and located within 700 feet from 15th-16th & Locust subway station was a plus.

The service was exceptional, from the friendly and helpful staff at the reception to the prompt room service. I also enjoyed the continental breakfast, which had a great selection of delicious options. this place exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to come back again!

    The place was reasonably clean and small luxury, had highly professional staff from arrival to check-out. We booked a double room with all the comforts and nice decor, as for instance. Also, location was prime, a 10-15 minute walk from a medical museum. Also, the area was very nice.

    Possibly the best and decent stay in September. Savoury and nice hot breakfast with yogurt and pastries, as for instance, consistently courteous personnel. Very quick check in and easy check out. Easy parking across street. Marvellous and incredible location for visiting pubs and cafés.

    Somewhat small room.

    Este hotel está en el corazón de la ciudad, cerca de muchos restaurantes y con excelente ubicación para transporte. El desayuno es de primera y el personal muy amable. Además, las instalaciones están limpias y bien cuidadas.

    Nada de verdad.

    We had a fantastic time staying at this charming boutique hotel in the heart of the city. The location was perfect, with dozens of fabulous restaurants within walking distance. Our room was clean and comfortable, with a modern bathroom and excellent sheets. The service was friendly and efficient, and we enjoyed the complimentary breakfast each morning. The view from our room was lovely as well. a great experience.

    The only downside was the lack of a lounge area and bar in the hotel. However, there was a nice restaurant and bar just a short walk away for those seeking a nightcap.
