I read some reviews that say that the hotel is dated. However, I actually like that it has character. It is pretty imo. So it is not exactly like the chain hotels, but has it's own charisma. The hotel is easy to get to, and it's next to police station and fire station (very safe :-)) The front curve stairway is beautiful, but it also means you have to lug the luggage up there. There is a lift, but to access my room, I needed to lug my luggage up the stairs. My room was not accessible by lift. So if you have a heavy luggage/ weak legs, you may not find this hotel appealing.
Other then that, the room was clean and comfortable enough. Note though, the shower area is in a bathtub, which you have to climb into.
I loved my stay there. I count myself lucky to stay in this charming hotel.
