We liked the location of the hotel. The staff was courteous and very helpful. The room lacked some basic amenities like a fridge and microwave especially for the price we paid. The rooms could definitely do with some updates.

Wonderful hotel. The front desk staff were very welcoming and answered all of our questions. The King Suite was very spacious and comfortable. We would definitely stay again. We ate off-site, like most hotel restaurants. The food was overpriced; however, we drove to Main Street and spent $70.00 at a deli...so we could have eaten at the hotel. Lol.

Loved the grounds and the grand building.. I know it is an old building, but the management needs to take care of the rooms. Our towel bar in the bathroom was very loose and could fall off the wall. We did not use it and reported it to the front desk.
