We loved our stay at Sessions. The rooms and all facilities were exceptionally clean. The staff was very helpful, especially Venetia. The amenities were great, we especially loved being able to play in the snow on the back of the property, since we have very young children it was very convenient. Just be aware that the building is older and so not as quiet as a normal hotel would be, although that wasn’t too much of a problem for us. Great location, definitely worth the price.

A very nice and pleasant place, with a very good location. Great staff. Some of the common areas need some maintenance. It has a nice forest behind the hotel but there were some broken chairs, broken glass and empty cans lying around.
