We picked the Normandy because we were visiting family in the immediate (and beautiful!) neighborhood. The Normandy seemed like the perfect combination of modest price and comfortable surroundings, and that turned out to be exactly true. The building is an older, six story building, with lots of charm and some quirks. Our king size room, on the top floor, Was medium small, though with an extremely comfortable bed, and an old-school bathroom with tiles and good water pressure and nice smelling pump soaps on the wall. The room was well lit, and had a Keurig coffee machine and a good mini fridge. One of the quirks of the building, though, was that the only window was fairly small, and oddly located in a corner. Breakfast in the breakfast room was included in our rate, but was surprisingly expensive for those who bought it separately. It’s a very basic continental breakfast, which seems appropriate to this kind of hotel, but would disappoint somebody counting on an egg and bacon feast. Everything was throughout the hotel was clean and welcoming, and we felt completely at home through our entire stay. That was also, largely, because of the staff. Every single person we dealt with was lovely. And when we complimented the hotel to them, they all without exception talked about how much they loved working here. You can feel that in the entire operation: it has a happy family feel that makes it the opposite of Hampton Inn (which is probably about the right level comparison in the corporate chain-hotel world) . You got the sense staff are happy to be here, and that they are happy you are here.

“Good place to rest.”

An excellent place to rest and in a good location. Everything is close, the breakfast is good. Nice place.

“Potentially great”

Conveniently located, walkable distance to train and main sites depending on how much you like walking. The hotel had a friendly boutique vibe and the staff were friendly.

Conveniently located, walkable distance to train and main sites depending on how much you like walking. The hotel had a friendly boutique vibe and the staff were friendly. I had 2 issues; first minor one with my room not being cleaned when requested and when i queried it, i had to wait for the next day as the cleaning staff had left. Second issue was there seemed to be bed bugs or something similar in the room. Every night i would wake up with lots of bites that were not there when i went to bed.
