One of the most enjoyable stays I have ever had in a “hotel” atmosphere we were in the area to pick up a new puppy and our host even came and brought us some old towels in case of puppy accidents. In the morning there was a nice continental breakfast with a fire going in the lobby. The location of this place coupled with the view and the welcoming atmosphere made this a 10/10 for us, I would recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

The best was communication. I have received information from the property several times before arrival and got my questions answered right away. The worst was the dirty carpet in the room. It was just very dirty and old too. I would have rated it higher if not for that. There is no laundry on site.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We had no hot water the first day of our stay and limited hot water the second day. The room was very dark. Bathroom light bulbs were burnt out. The bed was so noisy you didn’t want to move. The pillows were like half full bags of cotton balls. The carpet was stained/dirty I had to wear my shoes the whole time in the room. The last night the door frame broke and the door popped free. Not a pleasant stay for the price.

Very old-fashioned place. Room is very outdated. The lighting is VERY dim and poor in the room. Cobwebs on the patio railings. Wifi was spotty. Breakfast was just ok. Bagels, granola, yogurt, fruits, hard-boiled eggs. On the plus side, the staff were helpful.

My family and I had stayed at this property many times over the years but after this recent stay I do see the negative change since the ownership flip. It's an older property that hasn't been kept up as it used to be, and everything is automated. The staff was responsive to questions via message, but for the amount you pay, the charm it once had isn't there or worth it anymore.
