Historic, quirky, and an overall great hotel!

We have stayed here before, and our experiences have been consistently good! My only complaint is lack of coffee either in the rooms, or in the lobby. On very cold mornings, walking to Cafe Nero is not ideal.

To be fair, this is not a bad hotel. The staff are warm and gracious. Great location. Bad: no in-room coffee maker, but happy to charge you mini-bar style for ‘instant coffee’ but with no ready access to the requisite steeped water. Umm…the lift (elevator) is an ‘experience’. I ultimately elected to simply use the stairs. And worse by far is that (at least) if you are on the 2nd floor, you are ‘treated’ to the sounds of The BoomBox from open til closing time …incessant and non-stop bass thump…not ideal if your a lighter sleeper. More power to you if you love partying all night … So, all in all, the Dean is not bad but certainly doesn’t represent any lodging value .

Did not have an iron to offer. (Did have a steamer but did not use b/c we had our own. Hangers on wall were oddly spaced and did not have any “closet” space between items. Bar way not open but was able to use free drink at coffee shop. Ample options and the barista was very nice and the drinks were delicious!

Overall the hotel was lovely and clean. The coffee shop was not open either of the mornings we stayed which was fine since there was another shop just down the street. My only complaint is the bed - it was simply the most uncomfortable mattress I've ever slept on. It was sinking in the middle & we had to ask for extra pillows to put in the middle of the bed so we could actually try to sleep and not constantly roll into the middle of the bed. I'd compare it to sleeping on a very deflated air mattress. 0/10 on sleep quality and hours slept during the weekend we stayed here.

This is a difficult time of year to stay when I wish all workers had time for their families. It’s the holidays so take with a grain of salt. The amenities aren’t always available when we stay; coffee shop was not open, the bar, and we couldn’t use our drink tickets. I’m sure this is because of the holidays and staffing is tight. The hotel staff and cleaning staff are very friendly and available upon request. So it was nice to have extra blankets and our room turned over after a long day with family.

The old lift is charming. There was an error with our reservation: we reserved a King room but were assigned a queen. The lobby coffee service was not available although the sign says it was. There was no storage in the room, so we couldn't unpack.
