We were delighted to be upgraded to a king suite in the main building for the first time ever in many years of staying at the Oxbow. The king suite was immaculate and very comfortable - and much more spacious than the king rooms in the side building. Our only regret was that the Lakely closed at 10 p.m. so that we could not use our drink tokens by the time we returned to the hotel.

Friendly staff. The room needed refreshing. The bathroom door didn’t close, the sink and Kleenex holder were cracked, the shower floor tile needed bleaching. But the bed was comfortable and the location was good.

The room was musty. It looked better online than it did in person. We were moved from a King room to a Flat...which caused us to have to pay for extra for a pull out bed instead of one in the king room we reserved. It felt cheay renovated and the shower grout was gross. Very noisy. The front desk person during the first evening was wonderful, the one when we checked out...not so much. Some fees that were added to the bill sounded like BS.

Good location and walkable to various places. This is not a resort, so ditch the “resort fee”. Just be truthful and increase the base rate, if you need to charge more.
