Nice size room. Comfortable beds. Dingy carpet. No refrigerator. No ice bucket. No hangers in the closet (was resolved) and no wine key. If you bring wine be sure to have an opener. It's a charming old building but could use an update or two. Complimentary coffee and pastries are a nice touch. Overall experience 8/10
