Quick trip

Great experience, thankful for the cute little basket in the room that had snacks and hand wipes. A little pricey, but still fairly priced for last minute reservation!

Not bad

Clean, cool, quiet. Some small troubles that simply come with the fact it's an old country building (ex. Doors close with some difficulty or not at all (bathroom))

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Comfortable one night stay.

We had an excellent television with a variety of stations to choose from. Had a nice coffee selection, as well as snacks and water. We were very disappointed with the towels as they were not only small, but extremely thin. In fact, they felt wet the first time we used them, but I’m sure that was because of their thinness. Although the bed was comfortable, and the small room was very clean, the shower stall was extremely tiny. Could barely turn around in it let alone try to bend over—NOT. Of course, that’s the way it’s built so it can be changed.

The grounds and the people running the place are nice, but I don’t think I’ve ever been on a cheaper mattress or in a smaller shower for $200 a night. Nothing wrong with the place: it should just cost about 1/3 what it does. I spend a lot of time in hotels.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service

Served the purpose but nothing fancy.

This was what we needed, just a place to sleep over night and a shower. The shower was very very small, with little room for "normal" shower. But it did what I needed. Room small as well, but just to sleep and shower, we didn't need any more than that. It was a holiday weekend so VERY EXPENSIVE, but that was on us for the last minute travel in peak leave peeping season.
