1. I don't quite understand some of the complaints about the hotel on this site, yes the rooms are a little quaint, and ok the bathrooms could do with an upgrade soon, but everything is very clean and comfortable, and works, the rooms were big enough and the bed was lovely and comfortable and cosy.

6. If I had a complaint, it would be the location - it is a few blocks off State Street, but way up past the top end of the fun little downtown area, around the 1300 block of State Street.
