It’s a no from me, Dawg!

Lacking a lot of things that would be needed for a good stay. No fridge, microwave, iron or ironing board. The bed was hard and not comfortable. The electrical outlets were loose and wouldn’t hold plugs. There was dust standing on the baseboards. There was no room service even though it was advertised. The one positive was the staff, they were very pleasant. It was way overpriced for the town and in comparison to others in the town.

Beautiful hotel. The only downsides (if you can even call them that) is a small tv in the room and lacking in the working power outlet department but we loved our stay and would stay again!
Beautiful view from our room!

What a nice surprise this hotel was! We visited the welcome center in Lexington and the nice gentlemen working the counter recommended The Gin. We’re so glad he did, our room was perfect and the restaurant served delicious food. We liked it so much, we booked another night!

Pleasant stay

Hotel stay was comfortable. Staff was pleasant. Breakfast was subpar. There was no coffee left in the container, and no one was available to refill it. There was no fruit left, and no protein.
