Liked: Cleanliness
After reading the reviews after I booked non refundable I was prepared to spend a horrific night. But no. The room was made, the sheets and towels were clean. The check-in and out was done through an envelope with my room key with my name at the check in counter. I didn’t have to wait. Yes the decor is from last century but I didn’t even see a ghost. And the restaurant downstairs smelled really good.

Where to begin. Upon arrival at the hotel, we found our key left on the desk with my name, room number and key inside an envelope- no one at the desk. The elevator was broken, the room was 90 degrees, there was dog food on the floor in the corner of the bathroom and we were only given 1 towel for 2 people to use for a 3 night stay. On the paper that was left in the room it had a number to text or call for service since no one was there. I was told someone would be there at 9am the following morning with a towel and to clean the bathroom. That didn’t happen. It took almost 24 hours to even get a towel delivered to our room. Despite the Wi-Fi password being left in the room, the Wi-Fi didn’t work. The TV didn’t work. Definitely had an uneasy feeling staying in this hotel. Other than the bed being a comfy tempurpedic and it being a close walk to Main Street, there was nothing positive about this place. Spend the couple extra dollars and book somewhere else. We loved the Maple Leaf Inn and Townhouse Lodge for past stays!

Worst room ever

when we arrived, there was no one at the desk just an envelope with our name and the key. The elevator was not working. so, we had to use the stairs. When we got to the room it was verry small. the queen bed took most of the room. As we walked in the floor was moving under our feet. The bathroom was tinny, when you would sit on the toilet your head was in the sink. The TV didn't work. If it wasn't late WE would have left for some were else. Worst room I ever stayed at. Hotels.com should be ashamed for offering this place.

It appears they are working on renovating this property however they are not even close to being finished. We ended up not staying. We rented 2 rooms and had to walk up a lot of stairs. No one on duty at hotel. Elevator was not working. One room only had one plug in and the air conditioner was plugged into it. The pictures on Expedia must have been from the best room they have because both rooms we booked did not even look near that good. I would not recommend staying here.

We booked this last minute because it was close to the wedding we were going to. The staff was very nice and attentive but our room reeked of smoke and there were stains all over the carpet. We’re also pretty sure we saw a ghost. I wouldn’t stay here again.

If you're looking for a cheap spot to stay near the village and aren't planning to spend too much time in the hotel room I would stay here. The room was clean but very outdated, the wallpaper in the bathroom was falling off and some of the bathroom tiles were broken. There is a TV but it looks more like a computer screen. The pillows were paper thin so maybe pack your own pillow. Free coffee, tea and water in the lobby - we didn't eat at the restaurant. There was someone at the front desk when we checked in but that is the only time I saw someone, which was okay because when we booked it said no front desk staff. Overall, cheapest spot very close to the main street but very old.

The property was close to town but did not have hot tub as listed, could not get extra pillows. The ones provided were extremely flat. There were no curtains or blinds on any of my windows so when i showered i turned around to have people standing there staring at me naked. Noone is at the desk, u have to call for everything. Could not get my tv to work. No fridge for leftovers. Shampoo but no cond. Just a room like a hostel. Food downstairs is always excellent. Have eaten there several times but will not reccomend or stay again. Not worth the price.
