Nice Room almost broke my back using the bathroom. Toilet is almost on the floor and no grab bar in the shower. Bad for a disabled person. I thought it was required in all bathrooms. I knew I did in all bathrooms that I had in a personal care home for 30 years.

This is a unique historical property right on the waterfront . The exterior grounds are not much to look at but the interior is delightful. Our room was large with all the amenities . Our friend’s room had an air conditioning issue. The hotel immediately moved them to a nearby room which was much appreciated . A lovely place to stay and an easy walk to the entertainment on George St

The rooms need better noise controls, especially from the roof. Its an old building, but can improve more by more upkeeping. Overall, not bad but could improve!
