4/10 Fair

The AC in our room did not work on the first night. We brought this up to the desk and they asked if we had set the thermostat correctly. I confirmed the settings but no AC. The next morning I went back to the desk and I was told to maybe open the window!!! We went out for the day and upon returning, the room was at 80F so I went back to the desk and this time the desk clerk come to the room to verify. I asked if we could change rooms to which he stated he would check. After a while he came back with a fan and said he had found the system was off, possibly turned off for maintenance, and it should be working again. After a while the temperature started to drop to a much more comfortable level. The next morning we went back out and upon returning, the AC was out again.

Noise
The rating would be 5-star except that our rooms were located outside the back of a hospital. Each morning between 3-6 am, garbage trucks arrived to empty bins and they made an awful crashing noise that woke us up. Otherwise, the hotel was great. If you stay here, just make sure you request a room that faces the lake.

Basement room was not apparent.
I was disappointed that our beautiful room was in fact in the basement. The small window was so high we could not see out at all. The hotel , including the room , was beautifully renovated throughout. Lovely products in the bathroom.

Great hotel - well done mix of old and new
Great hotel room, very clean and tasteful. We'd stay here again, but definitely on the top floor - it's an old building so it's SUPER creaky.
