Disliked: Amenities
This was our first time staying at the John Carver inn and it was very disappointing for the rate we expected a better experience. The room was okay but there was hair in the tub. And they only option for coffee was the coffee maker in the room and it was filthy. The pool area with sauna we're closed down for renovations but the hot tub was open. We enjoyed it until we got back to the room and noticed our bodies were covered in rashes.

We like the hotel in general. But yesterday the hot tub was down mainly because the staff doesn’t seem to know how to operate it. We were looking forward to the hot tub and sauna and both were shut off at 6pm at night. Earlier in the week in a past stay it all worked fine. Disappointed.

Under renovations but they kept it very quiet. The heater however was very loud and there was clothes left behind in the room from the previous guest. Management did supply us with a change of room. Comfort was good and staff were helpful.
