Great experience but our only issue was that the sink was outside of the bathroom in the sleeping area other than that I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay again. The hotel was spotless and the breakfast was very good for what we paid for the room, 9 out of 10 just because of the wash hand basin location.

Fine stay in Keene

The Keene City Hotel was fine. It looks renovated. Breakfast was good. The bed was reasonably comfortable. I didn't love having the sink separate from the rest of the bathroom because it keeps people awake at night u til the last person is ready for bed, but it was t a big deal. I would stay here again.

I am an outdoor person and the property is located nearby many state parks including 25 minutes from MT Monadnock. It’s also located nearby the Keene downtown, which is very charming and cute and has options for dining and shopping. I also have a service dog and no questions were asked, which was a very nice experience. Staff were very professional and friendly. I had an awesome, relaxing weekend.

The only reason I didn't give 5 stars on the area around the property is because they were sealing the asphalt, which closed down part of the parking lot for the 2 days we were there. There was also new bathroom material on the grass in the back. Both of these things are for improvements on the property, which they were in the midst of, so perhaps I shouldn't ding them. The room was newly done and clean and smelled good, and we saved a significant amount by not going elsewhere. Breakfast was good, we were there first as we get up so early. The eggs were fluffy and well-seasoned, good options for other things and the coffee was hot.
