Cons:

It's above a bar, so one should expect it to be noisy, which it was. Great for people who want to stay up until the bar closes.

Dictionary definition of a hotel.
Pros:

Nice decor and comfortable bed

Cons:

Expensive bar and lack of accommodations due to the age of the building which is not immediately apparent prior to booking.

Pros:

Oud historisch hotelletje in stadscentrum
Super goeie communicatie
Gezellige bar

Cons:

- De reuk van het toilet in wc/douche is het enige wat tegenviel.
- Niet negatief, enkel ter info : Bij zo een oud hotelletje kan je geen lift verwachten, je sleurt je bagage de trap op en het is "Hotel en Bar", dus kan je ook geen stille kamer verwachten.

Sehr originelles Hotel für historisch interessierte Gäste.
Pros:

Die sehr originelle Einrichtung hat mir gefallen. Daraus resultierende Einschränkungen hinsichtlich des Komforts und der Ausstattung waren mussten akzeptiert werden.

Cons:

Der fehlende Teekocher im Zimmer, der auf Nachfrage nachgereicht wurde und
die etwas antiquierte Badeinrichtung.

Historic hotel with character. Good value in great location.
Pros:

Super location, great value. Historic building with neat old photos in the hallways. Nice to have been able to get a room with a fridge and private bath.

Cons:

It feels a bit run down, with old carpets in the hallway, and bedroom walls that need paint.

Pros:

Odd, old hotel, felt like it was channelling all the hotel/saloons in movies, would def vote for most haunted hotel in Juneau. Easy to walk to things, no lobby to hang out, you have to go to the bar. Did what i needed it to.
