While I love this area, I would never stay here again (at least in the winter). The first room I checked into felt like an attic poorly converted into a half-maintained hotel room. While it was around 0°F outside for the weekend, I realized the night I checked in that my air unit was not pumping out any heat and the thermostat was not working — let alone the broken “automated” window shade. While I had no way of knowing exactly how cold it got, I could not sleep at all, even bundled up in multiple layers, my parka, and a beanie — this was certainly a safety hazard, especially with no one available at the front desk after 11pm/midnight. The only reason I give 2 stars instead of 1 (or 0 if possible) here was that the 4th different front desk person I talked to in a 24hr period moved me to a larger room with a fireplace for my second and final night there. The first night with no heat and likely 40/50°F temperatures in the room was the most miserable hotel experience I’ve ever had in all my travels. 10/10 do NOT recommend (at least in the winter).

Everything was great! I'd like to add that sound travels from upstairs in the suite to the lower level and vice versa. We had to keep the volume of the upstairs TV way down because our guest below could easily hear it. I wish there was a door or at the top of the stairs. We's still stay there again. It was very clean, pretty, & a quick walk to downtown. The staff at the desk were very friendly!

Very comfortable room with a great bed. Clean as a whistle. Good quality toiletries provided. Hot water took a bit to "come up" for a shower. I was in a room right by the check in desk and could hear some of the interactions taking place so just turned the TV up a bit. All in all, very good and I would stay again.

The room was fine but we didn’t realize that we were not staying at the main inn. We were next door and had to brave the cold to get to the main inn for breakfast. There was also a resonating electrical? hum that cyclically came and disappeared every 5 minutes. It was hard to get to sleep. It came from the jacuzzi tub that was right next to the bed.
