This is a large, old hotel with a very impressive entrance but outdated, unrenovated rooms (for example, a glass shelf that was loose from its place). The cleanliness level was reasonable, but the hotel stood out for its reluctance to provide services that are typically offered for free in other hotels.
For instance, they charged a relatively high fee for storing each piece of luggage (including backpacks) after checkout and were notably stingy with supplies like soap. Additionally, the fee for early check-in was excessively high—about 80% of the nightly rate listed on the website.
