Lovely place. Clean and comfy. Kind of awkward that the pool and hot tub we were supposed to use were at another hotel location. Just a few houses down. But still not convenient. Also hot tub was just hot, no jets 😳

TBH, Staying in a 175 year old room is new to me. Usually stick with the trusty old chain hotels but thought I’d step out of the box a bit and try this. Definitely very happy! Place has some cool vibes, room was spacious, amenities were good, staff super friendly and location was awesome. No problems recommending!
