The upgrade room was well appointed but being located in the basement gave it a dungeon like vibe. Required front desk assistance in the evening to get the heat working in the room. Morning front desk staff was much less accommodating or welcoming.

Our stay was lovely. The only beef I have is that you allow dogs in the bar. I have nothing against dogs but I don’t agree with them being in a bar or restaurant where you eat and drink, it is not hygieneic

Very nearly great

The good: This is a lovely looking hotel from when you walk through the doors. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bar attached was really good and the breakfast was enjoyable. Good looking furnishings in the room overall great look and feel. The bad: The bed was a bit rickety and the mattress was the cheapest of cheap and lessened the overall quality. It’s a cheap and cheerful hotel if they got some quality mattress’s it would be great

The receptionist was very helpful as our checkin was not until 3pm, but we had a family funeral to attend, completed check in even though room not ready. Meaning we could attend funeral and celebration of life at yacht club, walk up get bag out of car go to room.
