Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We absolutely LOVED our stay here. We stayed for one night to attend a family wedding nearby in aurora, and we were in love with the springside. The rooms are adorable, just our style, and the entire property is gorgeous. The vintage style is so fun and comfy, and it’s very clean and well taken care of. It was a huge bonus that it’s close to the lake because I’m a runner and there was lots of beautiful scenery as I did my five mile run this morning. If I could give the inn 10 stars I would, we will never stay anywhere else when we’re visiting family in the area. Thank you springside for making our trip so special!

I wanted to like this place, having had good experiences at bed-and-breakfast type places before, but this place lacked the things that set b&bs apart. The was zero hospitality - no one there to check us in, no one at the desk when we came down in the morning for breakfast. The breakfast was not worth eating. Single-serving cereal (Special K and Frosted Flakes) and some plain bagels in plastic wrap. There was no place to get water. No real coffee cups - just plastic. There was no staff around to ask questions or get help. It felt more like a motel with antiques than anything else.
