4/10 Fair

It's a beautiful hotel, in a beautiful location, in desperate need of a total renovation. Everything is either dirty, or outdated. From peeling paint to toilets not flushing properly, everything need a gut job. Our room had a stunning view, but heating, bidet and windows did not work properly. We were freezing because of the draft from the old windows that don't close properly. The entire hotel is falling apart, certainly not the luxury experience we were expecting. We could not wait to get out of there.

It was chosen because it is "historical" or nearly so. It is a little run down. But still the best in the area, apparently

This is a palace that was built in 1886. the space is truly palatial and unique. An upgrade or restoration of furniture, and bathroom amenities need to be done.
