Sadly, we did not stay at this hotel. We travel frequently and are not demanding or unreasonable. We understand wear and tear in older properties. The issue here was the booking process. We attempted to book three nights through the hotel’s website. Each time, after entering correct dates and credit card details, the confirmation email generated by the ReservIT system showed dates shifted one day earlier. This happened repeatedly. We cancelled and retried several times. The same issue occurred. This is a known problem with some older booking systems, especially when booking from a different time zone. We have experienced this elsewhere in the past. We contacted the hotel directly by email to clarify and received no response. After reading consistent Google reviews mentioning similar communication and booking issues, we decided to cancel and stay elsewhere. The hotel appears charming and well located. With a more reliable booking system and clearer communication, it would likely be a much stronger offering. This review is based solely on the booking experience, not a stay. To be fair I have rated the rooms and the location as 3, even though I have not stayed here, but the service for not responding to my reservation I made with them, is 1/5 and that is generous Cheers
