The room was good for the deal we got. I’d be disappointed to pay what they usually charge for this room. The carpet could use cleaning or replacing. We didn’t get a balcony, but had a window view of the river.

My husband called a couple of days before our check-in to see if early check in was available, to which they said yes. We got there very early, but waited until about 2 before we asked about the early check in. There had been a couple of other people that came in asking about early check in and the woman at the counter was quite rude, so we didn't even bother asking. It was not a good first impression at all. The restaurant is amazing though! Our server Ashley was incredible!!

This is a lovely historic inn, and my room overlooked the bridge and the river - which was beautiful. I was surprised to get charged an extra $75 when I arrived; $40 for parking two nights and the rest they said was because Hotels didn't "charge enough tax." So that was an unpleasant start. But it was lovely, the area is very nice, and definitely a nice place.

Had a room over looking river. Chairs on deck had bird crap on cushions and were generally in poor shape. Room was average and seemed smaller then web site picture. Tried it, but until they do a major update, probably will not stay there again

Affordable but certainly get what you pay for. The rooms are a bit old, which was fine but in the middle of the night there was a loud humming machine that woke us up. It sounded like it was coming from above us and lasted for 30 minutes. We have no idea what is was but it was quite obnoxious.

Excellent hotel on the St Croix River

This is a really comfortable historic hotel that has been updated. Very large rooms, some with views of the river. A good Irish pub in the building serves meals, and the shops and restaurants of Stillwater are all within a couple of blocks. Very relaxing stay.

There were 4 women in a room. We got there Friday night. Only 3 towels couple wash clothes 1 roll of toilet paper and empty kleenex box. (4 K cups for coffee otherwise you had to pay for it). We went down to front desk and got more of above. Sunday night at 1:30am the fire alarm went off for along time. It was the whole hotel We called down stairs and we were told they were working on trying to shut ot off. There wasnt a fire. For the money the place wasnt worth it. We wont stay there again. .
