“Although this hotel has appeal as an old building, that is also the biggest drawback. The walls are paper thin, so even with earplugs, you still hear EVERYTHING in and around your room. After we checked in the late afternoon and made our way to our room, we noticed a room service tray on the floor a few rooms up from ours with uneaten food on it, and it was still there late into the next afternoon. My eye mask fell behind the nightstand and I found a receipt and cracker on the floor behind the nightstand, I threw away the receipt, but I'll bet the cracker is still there. Also, for the price of this hotel (over $350 a night off-season), we expect decent linens and towels, but the bath towels here were as rough as sandpaper and barely big enough to wrap around any adult body. The room service options are extremely limited so we ate in the restaurant and the food was okay for dinner, but the next morning, we had the worst breakfast we have ever had. Our great server came to us three times to apologize for the wait, and said the eggs for our eggs benedict were the problem, but, the potatoes were swimming in oil, and the pancakes were a soggy, mushy, inedible mess, the restaurant took over an hour to deliver this awful "food". My husband joked that maybe the cook called in sick and the dishwasher had to take over. The next night they had a fire in the kitchen and we were not surprised. Thankfully, we had checked out and stayed at the Maswick Lodge for our remaining night at almost $100 a night less, with nice, quiet rooms, softer, full-length bath towels, and meal options that better fit our activities. Parking is also a major issue here as non-hotel guests are permitted to take up much of the limited parking.”

“If your grandma was a queen and lived in an old house and you went to visit for vacation and never wanted to leave! Just perfect location, superb character! One of my most unique stays in a hotel. Absolutely worth the money if you can afford it and if you can't, I don't know find a way ! I did! You have to stay here at least two nights My only thing would have been if at check in they would have realized it was my birthday and realized I have chosen a special day to stay here and just leaving this here as it goes a long way for future guests!”
