Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

We were moved hotel the day before with the option to cancel the room or go to the hotel they had arranged. We couldn't find a hotel for a reasonable price so went with the one they arranged which was poor and in a worse location. Really really disappointed.

Great location and spacious, spotless rooms, making the climb up the stairs well worth it
Pros:

The location is fantastic, making it easy to go back to the hotel during the hottest part of the day. Our room was spacious, spotless, and wonderfully cool upon arrival. The large bathroom was a nice plus. The front desk staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout our stay.

Cons:

As other reviewers noted, climbing the three flights of stairs to reach the hotel can be exhausting, especially after a long day of walking or when arriving with heavy luggage. While we knew what to expect beforehand and managed fine, it is worth keeping in mind. The only other minor downside was that the bathtub lacked a shower curtain, which made it difficult to keep the bathroom floor dry while showering.
