Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rooms were a good size, though a bit worn. Things like hand prints on headboards and rust around bath drain and a bathroom sink drain that would not properly seal. Breakfast service was good, on par with a Hampton Inn or Fairfield Inn. One weird thing. You had to go up/down a step to enter or exit a room. A major trip hazard.

Safe was exceptionally kind and responsive. There was a small issue with the room which the team addressed immediately - even though everyone was very busy - the hotel was sold out that night. The brunch at the on-site restaurant was phenomenal. A great stay. Will be back.

The hotel is located along the beautiful Route 52, leading to Longwood Gardens. It’s a wonderful place to stay to when you want to visit this lovely botanical garden. Staff was helpful and engaging. It was great to have a good restaurant on site. The breakfast was typical, I would have liked it to be a bit more special. It was a good stay and I’m looking forward to returning.
