Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrence 3 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Really liked the atmosphere, such a fun place to stay. The entry and library and outdoor patio were so nice to sit and relax and read a book. Note that many of the bathrooms are shared-luckily the hotel wasn’t full when we were there so no one to share with. They could do a lot better with decorating-getting some time-period/era art on the walls, instead of the tacky amateur art for sale. So much potential they are on a good start ##### Lawrence Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christa 7 Sept 2024 Liked: Amenities The grounds and building are a fantastic surprise in such a small town.Great food and fun vibe.
