8/10 Good
"Although it is a historical landmark hotel, I still think some upkeep needs to be done. The telephone in our room looked straight from the 90s, stained yellow and old. I’d get something that matches the aesthetic a bit more. The vanity by the fridge was dirty as if someone had done their makeup before I arrived and it hadn’t been cleaned. The clock and tv also didn’t work."
