Gorgeous hotel, perfect for weddings I think. Very clean. Lovely room. Friendly reception when I arrived. A few pointers: have someone at the desk in the morning, make it easy for guest to get into the hotel from the back parking lot instead of trekking through snow and ice with bags over the sidewalk to the fronti of the hotel. Put a mirror near an outlet so blowdrying hair is possible, and since theres no restaurant on site, create a partnership with coffee shop, bakery, or restaurant so guests have a go to place to get meals instead if still having to sort through restaurant lists and drive again after a long trip. Overall - cool place for a romantic getaway or event, not so much for business travel.

My wife and I stayed here for a couple nights. The room we were in was pretty small, but it was fine for just the two of us. Biggest compaint was that the bathroom mirror is very high off the ground and is very small. My wife has a hard time seeing in the mirror to get ready. Just add a mirror on the wall in the room somewhere to solve this problem. The other big issue was electrical outlets. There isn't one in the bathroom, so using a hair dryer was not very convenient for my wife. Again, a mirror in the main room near an outlet would solve this issue.

The staff member was very friendly at the front desk. It's a boutique hotel so ceiling heights are very tall and decor match the age and heritage of the building.
