The hotel is a basic, no frills place, with no additional perks other than a place to stay. What I liked about it was that it was within walking distance of several major parks and university, with plenty of great places to eat and groceries close by. The two young people who took care of guests and housekeeping did their best, and were always kind. There is no heat in the summer, which means it is also very damp. My room had no air circulation and was cold and damp, with a strong mildew smell. It was in the basement, so highly recommend no one stay in the basement except for a very short stay. There was a window that could open into the dirty alley under the stairs, but that made the room colder and it can't be left open during the day or night. The age of the building makes it noisy, with creaking floors and the walls are thin.
