Cromwell International Hotel

Could easily be so much better if management cared

Plus: Shower was reliably hot. Booked because of the loft room

Minus: Lack of wi-fi in rooms. Wi-fi in lobby didn't work. View of inner courtyard was disgusting. Makeshift scaffolding as fire escape, with stale bread left out for nesting pigeons, with shit all over the outside window. Room was unbearably hot (80F-degrees plus) so windows had to be opened to sleep, which meant dealing with nesting pigeons and smell of pigeons and smell of hotel staff smoking below us in the courtyard. Bathroom at times smelled like sewer Toilet would occasionally run non-stop. Only one access card left my wife unable to enter the room when we were separated and I had the card. The staff were faux-friendly, felt like I was in a third world country. Shower door broke while we were staying. Dingy linens and dated furniture Vent in the upstairs room could see into adjoining room.
