2. The things that bothered me and why I didn't give it four stars included the antique elevator (although charming), was so slow, that we ended up using the stairs the whole time we stayed there.

7. Elevators: Did not enjoy the elevator- it is old and slow and the door doesn`t stay open long enough to get your suitcases in - - - we took the stairs most of the time.

8. Really slow elevator, but it's only four stories to the top, so it is manageable.

9. The only gripe I had, which was really no big deal, was that the elevator was awfully slow to and from the fourth floor, and with car seat or stroller the stairs were a steep option.
