Hotel Saint Vincent

3.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (267)
"This is more a bed and breakfast rather than a hotel. I arrived late at night. Street was dark. Old building means no elevators. That’s an issue if you have limited mobility. My room was on the top floor (4 flights). Room was small but comfortable enough. Could hear the room below and the door had no keyhole to look out if someone were to knock on the door. Breakfast was great though and the staff were lovely. Fine for a one night stay but limited amenities and facilities would prevent me...
