Not pleased

We reserved a nonsmoking room and they put us in a smoking room. Thankfully they switched us the next day. Our new room was comfortable but there was mold in the bathroom and noticeable water damage throughout the room. Beautiful property and affordable prices but I will not stay there again. The staff was pleasant other than the young gentleman at the front desk.

Liked: Cleanliness
The staff was friendly. It was becoming a pain going up and down the stairs. Since there is not an elevator. The hotel was old but clean. The faucet had a leak and the toilet lid slid sideways when you sat on it. The area around the hotel was beautiful.

We stayed here for a weekend getaway. Overall everything was positive. Room was clean, and staff very friendly and accommodating. One word of caution, this is a two story property and there is no elevator. We had been given a room on the second floor and my wife has a disability that makes it difficult for her to climb stairs. We informed the front desk and they relocated us to a ground floor room. The restaurant was good. Only negative experience was that the complimentary breakfast was pre-packaged danishes. We were told this was due to a call off from one of their kitchen staff. Still, given the value for the price, we will stay here again.

Attack of the knats

There were gnats in the room. Live ones were annoying, but the dead ones were everywhere.....even in the bedding , even between the sheets. The front desk staff were very nice, but unable to help my disabled mother to get her TV working as the staff that handled such issues had already left for the day. My daughter and her fiance, who are vegan, ask about some ingredients in the free breakfast buffet..... The staff member was unwilling to check the packaging to see if there were dairy products in the biscuits. My family has stayed at this hotel on Labor Day weekend for many years, as there is a family reunion near there. I am not sure that we will be going again. It is 3.5 hour drive from home to get there and another 3.5 drive back home. This was the worst experience we have ever had in all the years we have stayed at this establishment.
