Old world charm building with high ceilings and period features. Comfortable bed with nice bedding. En suite bathroom could use some love. One lightbulb was out and the toiletries weren’t fully stocked. Some visible mildew. Overall, a pleasant experience for our overnight stay.

Our stay at The Dewey was fantastic! Everything was easy and efficient, and it was so close to both town and Tanglewood. The bed was comfortable, the water pressure in the 3rd floor shower was fantastic, and the room was well-appointed without being overly crowded. I also have to commend the owners for their attention to detail - after many, many years of traveling all over the world, this was the first time I have ever stayed in a hotel where the hairdryer came with a diffuser attachment. (What a treat for my curls!) We would definitely stay here again.

We were not informed that the bathroom was NOT part of the room, but across the public hallway. Even though it was for our use only, I would have never accepted the room had I known in advance. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it but would request a different room with an en-suite bathroom.

We were surprised to enter the property and find no one to greet us. There should have been a prominent sign that said that guests needed to check in at the other hotel. But instead we buzzed buzzers and called the emergency number trying to find someone to check us in.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Rooms are on the second and third floors and no elevator. Our standard king on the second floor did not have an en suite bathroom. Needed to go across the hall to the toilet. The shower stall was very small and the overhead rainfall shower head was very big. The weekend breakfast buffet about what you would find at a low-cost chain motel. That said, the coffee was very tasty and access to Tanglewood was simple.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
You can hear every sound that every guest makes in this house. It is impossible to sleep. Our room did not have a bathroom attached and this was not in the room description. There is an inch gap between the walls and door so there is literally no sound proofing. There is also no attendant on site and when I called the line to request something for our room no one answered. Overall a completely terrible experience, the worst place I have ever stayed
