Pros (+) A nice clean comfy traditional room. Staff was friendly and the location was great.
Pros (+) Great location, rooms and service
Cons (-) The weather
Pros (+) Great location. The spa was good.
Cons (-) Our room was on the first floor and it sounded as though every toilet in the building was directly above us.
Pros (+) All of the staff - from valets to room service, desk clerks to lounge staff, housekeeping to spa staff - were friendly, knowledgeable, professional

Pros (+) I liked the historical nature of the building, and the architectural details. I found the hotel to be big on comfort, cleanliness, and friendly and helpful staff. Loved the complimentary coffee delivered to your room in the morning, much nicer than having to make substandard coffee in the room.

But it was inexpensive, $12, so this is not really a comp...
