Garden View Hotel

Garden View Hotel

8/10 Good
"It is a beautiful property- and currently undergoing some renovations- but that didn’t get in our way at all. Being an old building we expected it to not be perfect. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was clean in all the ways that mattered… bed, bathroom, floors. The room could use a deeper cleaning - some areas were dusty. But overall we enjoyed the stay here. Beds were comfortable and soft."
