Frommer's Review

Few hotels in the neighborhood offer so much low-key charm at such reasonable prices. It's composed of a trio of high-ceilinged buildings, interconnected via a sheltered courtyard, where in warm weather, singing birds provide a worthy substitute for the TVs deliberately missing from the rooms. Accommodations, as reflected by the price, range from snug, cozy doubles to more spacious chambers. All units were renovated in 2001, with lesser repairs continuing regularly since then, and the small bathrooms with showers were also spruced up. Each room is comfortable, but with a lot of luggage, the very smallest would be cramped. The decor is old-fashioned, with feminine touches such as flowered upholsteries and ruffles. Many have views of a garden whose trellises and flower beds evoke the countryside.

Facilities:
Room service; babysitting; garden; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
