6. The Benson Hotel is definitely a charming old hotel with its quirks that one would expect in an historic landmark-y type hotel: i.e., french windows with no screens, small bathrooms with no storage and with very small tubs (5'0' long tops), warped uneven floors, odd shaped rooms, tall ceilings and no ceiling light fixtures (no wiring for that back in the day).

10. Also, the bathroom was very tired looking -- the glaze in the tub appeared dirty, but honestly, I believe it was just so old that it was clean but looked dingy.
