4. It's definitely an older hotel, with some funky quirks that are purely cosmetic and minor (door was a little hard to close, some of the paint and furniture are a little beat-up, walls are a bit thin so you can hear the neighbors), but all the important stuff (bathroom counter, bed -- basically anything you have to use or touch) is tidy and clean.

5. POOL Clean and heated to a very comfortable Bathtub like degree Breakfast is included, and it is just the basics, but they keep the buffet area clean and welcoming Consider this when you decide to book a room at this hotel The Hotel is definitely charming, and I find that it is well maintained, I saw the builders quietly sneaking around with tools and new furniture so it seems like they are doing maintenance and upgrading of the Rooms in between bookings, the craftsmen are helpful and polite, and you hardly notice them sneaking around.
