Feels like home!

This was a great stop for a night on our way to Sugarloaf to ski. We booked last minute, but were given very clear check-in instructions. The room was comfortable, clean, and the extra amenities like the living room and breakfast supplies were an added bonus! We would absolutely stay again next time we’re up this way.

Disliked: Amenities
When I booked this room Deluxe Single room, I looked at the pictures and was under the impression that it had its own bathroom, I did not see Shared Bathroom listed so either it wasn’t at the time (I see it is now) or I didn’t look closely enough, either way it was disappointing:( Cons: I feel the price is quite high (and non-refundable) for a bedroom with shared bathroom, no tv or cable (which I was aware of) and no individual heat controls (I did get in touch with someone to turn the heat up as my room was very cold and they came quite quickly). The continental breakfast was bags of bread in the fridge with milk and juice, there were eggs but on a separate shelf that was not labelled continental so no idea if they were for breakfast. I got an email with check-in instructions but no room number indicated so just guessed which was mine. Pros: The bed was very comfortable for one person and I had a great sleep! Feels a bit like your grandmothers house…nice and cozy but with a pool table downstairs and lots of books:)
