The location is amazing. There was a very good effort made to make it as comfortable as possible. I appreciated that there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows as well as toiletries. The staff was friendly and helpful. They stowed our luggage for free after we checked out so that we could hit a few more museums before leaving. There were some real problems that need to be addressed. There was mold in the bathroom above the shower. There was an awful smell in the stairwell leading to the room. Initially it was ok because it was only in the stairwell, but after a day the smell creeped into our room and by day two it was unbearable. There was an Air freshener in the room, but it didn’t do much. There was some brick laying work happening right outside our window and it began at 7:00 in the morning. This may have all been temporary and it is likely they are addressing the problem, but it did make for an uncomfortable stay. There were other problems that are understandable due to the age of the building and the location. For example: the walls are very thin so you can hear everyone who come and goes.
