Frommer's Review
This small, cozy, centrally located, English-inspired hotel has a lobby that resembles an English pub. (They sell drinks from the reception desk.) A collection of leather-upholstered Chesterfield sofas completes the Anglophile theme. Built in 1947, it originally functioned as a doctor's office and an office building, but in 1992 it was transformed into the charming seven-story hotel you see today. Only breakfast is served, but a light evening meal -- usually featuring a stew pot of some kind of hearty, rib-sticking soup and fresh bread -- is included, buffet-style, as part of the price. Bedrooms are medium size, high-ceilinged, and very pleasant, with full-grained wooden furniture.
Facilities:
Pub-style lobby bar; sauna; laundry service/dry cleaning; solarium; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
