Thayers Inn

Thayers Inn

8/10 Good
"Historic hotel right on main street - second floor has a balcony overlooking the street. You can walk the entire downtown area easily from the hotel, a nice reprieve after a long day driving. Being historic - the wooden floors aren't always level and the bathrooms were retrofitted in and can be small. Parking behind the hotel was simple, free, and easy."

"Les gens sont supers gentils. L'Hotel est vieille mais très propre. La senteur de parfum est vraiment intense, l'air climatiser est vraiment super bruyante. Même chose pour la piscine qui se retrouve dans une autre bâtisse. Le bruit de ventilation est tellement forte qu'il est difficile de discuter sans devoir crier. L'eau de la piscine et froide et l'eau du spa est pas super chaude."

"Would this property benefit from an update, absolutely but the owner, I think, was absolutely in point. He was courteous and helpful. When he found out I was leaving at 3 in the morning, he offered to make me a snack for my drive to the airport and when I looked in the room fridge I saw that he had given me a bunch of snacks. I would definitely stay there again."
