Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel was within easy walking distance to old town as well as transport to and from the airport. The alley behind the hotel was noisy, beginning at 5am. The staff were friendly. The bed was comfortable but with only 2 small windows the room was dark. We would stay at the Waverly again but would request a front facing room.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Carpeted floors were kinda gross, there was no phone in the room to contact reception or order room service, they gave me the wrong luggage when I went to pick it up from storage (they didn't check the tag number). Aside from that, it was a reasonably priced and reasonably comfortable stay. It is exactly worth its 3-star-rating.
