Staff was friendly and attentive. They offered to help with luggage upon arrival and also informed us of breakfast for the next morning. Menu's to local restaurants were also provided (Steak house & Italian). The room was spotless; the star was the hot tub which was magical. Definitely recommend and will be back soon.

The staff went above and beyond to make us welcome. Professional yet so friendly and helpful. There are two wonderful restaurants just steps away from the hotel. I would stay here over the chain hotels nearby. Great value for what you are getting. And there's breakfast!

The room was nice but not what I expected it was not the same room as shown in the website the wine glasses were dirty. The base of the shower had mold on it. The jacuzzi tub needs to be replaced. The edges in the tub have a reddish brown discoloration The man at the front desk was very nice I believe his name was Troy. Your maid on duty the morning we left was very rude. Very unfriendly

Second time staying at this quaint, clean, comfortable, peaceful, and hospitable hotel! So convenient to all the local sights plus located on a great, little campus with unique shops, art, and eateries. Hotel staff is friendly and accommodating. Breakfast offers hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, waffle maker, pastries, cereal, fresh fruit, juices, coffee and tea (latter offered 24/7). Comfy beds and wonderful shower with plenty of hot water. Great accommodations at a great price.

When i arrived they had out complimentary cookies which were delicious! The hotel had an awesome fireplace area. The rooms were nice. We went on new year's eve but we heard about a bakery nearby, unfortunately that was closed on new year's but it is understandable. I would love to cone back in the warmer months and check out the outdoors.
