We had a room directly across from the ice machine so it was pretty loud all night. The hotel is very convenient to campus.

The hotel was exactly what we needed. The elevator was broken but that wasn’t a big problem for us. It might have been for some guests who were also on the third floor.

Bit of a strange hotel. I didn’t get the room I had booked and the hotel wasn’t very helpful at sorting this out refunding the difference. Rooms have noisy old AC systems and feel a bit like an 80’s Hilton room. Staff are pleasant

We love this hotel with the exception that the elevator has been out of service for 2 years! Major advances in technology have been made in less time. The front desk has gotten to the point of being totally non-apologetic about it. I'm sure it hasn't been a whole lot of fun for them but try being a guest carrying multiple suitcases up 3 flights of stairs! don't know why they don't hire students from Swarthmore College as baggage porters.
