The location is central. It allowed for easy access to nearby attractions. I also liked the comfortable beds. A great range of pillows was available.
The windows had a film over them. This blocked natural light in the room. Hot water in the shower was not very hot. It was difficult to have a relaxing shower.

Underwhelming Stay at Heritage Building

worn furniture dated fixtures
The hotel benefits from its excellent location.
I booked a Traditional Queen Room for three nights. My room faced an interior courtyard and received very little natural light. The furniture looked worn, and the bathroom fixtures seemed dated. I could also hear noise from nearby rooms.
