Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities

My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary and we were very disappointed. The room was clean, but dated. The bathroom was nice. However, the service was terrible. After staying at the Salamander in Middleburg, where the employees were so kind and helpful, staying here was a huge disappointment. We went to the front desk asking for ice and champagne glasses as we had a vintage bottle to enjoy for our anniversary. The front desk employee said she would send it up shortly. After over an hour, we called to inquire on the status and they said it was coming. After another 40 minutes, we gave up and called and said not to worry about it. It had been over two hours at that point, and instead of being apologetic or kind, the employee was rude and dismissive. For the amount of money it costs for a one night visit, the disregard for customer service is frustrating. The overnight valet parking charge is also ridiculously high. This wouldn’t have bothered me so much if the customer service was great. Maybe my expectations were too high after our fantastic weekend celebrating an anniversary at the Salamander in Middleburg 2 years ago, but this stay was a big let down.

Beautiful hotel - due to increment weather no one was out there but the 3rd day the fire pits were on and my husband and I sat out and enjoyed the view, the stairs to go down and explore was roped off. The only restaurant that was open at that time, service was slow and the food was not that great. Overall, I would stay here again, walking distance to the Wharf and popular monuments.
