Bed comfort -- good mattress and pillows, comfy

General report: The building is old, but well cared for. I like the ambience. Enjoyed sitting under the trees by the river in the breeze. Good service at dinner. Comfortable beds and I especially liked being able to open the windows. Bathroom is good condition. And the prices were very economical. Would go there again. Eleanor

It’s not a bad place and good location. Food in Restaurant is good. Beds are not comfortable and wifi is basically non-existent. Lots of hot water in shower. It’s 1960’s which is not all bad.

Area was nice but the hotel wasn't There was an A/C unit but it was unplugged with hand written a note saying that room temp control was for 'Heat only' * This was in end July The access to all the rooms was via a narrow porch running around 2 sides of the property The view was great, we had to shut the curtain if we didn't want to be on display for every others guest. The rooms smelt like humidity when we arrived so we had to open the window... They were guillotine type so anybody could have entered the room until we closed them again We arrived late, left early and do not plan on going back Also there is no breakfast on monday

Check in was quick. Walking distance to restaurants (I wouldn't recommend The Golden Pond) Its an old building so certain things are inevitable like squeaky floors. Hope there was no one below us. The king room was large but weirdly laid out. Desk and fridge/microwave at the end of the bed where the TV normally would be. TV was on the side wall making for a sore neck watching from the bed....The sofa was all the way on the other side of the room, nowhere besr the TV. Bathroom was kind of outdated, dead fly on the floor, used washcloth hanging over the shower curtain rod. The handle for turning water on and off in the shower was quite loose but the pressure was fine. It was the cheapest place but not sure if we'd stay there again.

Property was beautiful. If you are looking to sit outside to read a book and socialize it’s a wonderful spot. Kind of like taking a step back in time. Room was okay. AC was rather noisy, toilet would continue to run if you didn’t reset handle. Cell service in area is weak and internet wasn’t great. TV had to buffer so much it wasn’t usable.

Pros were clean room, very comfy bed, shower had awesome water pressure, quick and easy check in, ample parking, and heat pump in room. Cons were outdated building but that’s part of the charm really, no hairdryer in room, and lots of steps to 2nd floor. Would recommend though as the price was reasonable!
