"The staff and location were both great and we'd consider staying at this hotel again. I found the bed comfortable, the room spacious, and the hotel history interesting. For consideration, there are two elevators, but one seemed to not function well while we were there. On our check-out day, neither seemed to be functioning so we carried our bags down the stairs. You may want to request a lower floor, if that could be an issue for you. We also found the room warm. There was a fan, but we couldn't get it to work. Our solution was to open the windows when we'd get back to the hotel, cool the room down, and then close them before going to sleep as it was quite loud with the windows open. No issues with noise after closing them though."

It was quiet and, most importantly, very convenient to the airport for our 1-night stay.
