The property manager Bill is great! He checked us in and ensured our stay was good through the end of our stay. He even offered to drop off post cards for us because we had to rush to the airport the day we were leaving and didn’t have time to stop by the airport. The property is charming and has a long history which gives it character. We loved the outdoor fire pit at night because it organically creates warm atmosphere and a lovely place to socialize with other guests and hotel visitors. The location of the hotel is great. It’s only about 10 minute drive from the ferry boat station and near great restaurants and bars, including Leonessa and Colombo’s.

This is a unique, historic hotel with nicely renovated rooms, conveniently located. It had a charming bar. The rooms are small but comfortable. Our major complaint is that the hotel promised daily room refreshing. One evening, we returned to the hotel after a full day to find that our room had not been refreshed. Although one of the cleaners unexpectedly called off, and our host did provide fresh towels, there is some basic staff accountability that was lacking. Don't make a promise if you can't keep it.
