Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel highlighted some ups and downs. The wedding services were exceptionally well-organized, ensuring a memorable experience. The bar staff, especially, contributed to a pleasant atmosphere. However, I was disappointed with the lack of hot water during my stay and the slow service from the front desk staff. The hotel's classic decor added charm, but overall, I had mixed feelings about my visit.
Our stay at the hotel was absolutely fantastic! The staff went above and beyond to make everything seamless during our visit, especially during the wedding we attended. The rooms were well-kept, and the atmosphere was both cozy and inviting. A few minor things could be improved, but overall, we felt it was great value for a lovely getaway.
Our stay was marked by a wonderful pet-friendly atmosphere, letting us enjoy a cozy time with our two labs. The location was incredibly convenient for taking them out, and we were treated very well by the accommodating staff. However, our experience was tarnished by disruptive noise from other guests during our stay, which the management did little to control.
My stay at this hotel was quite mixed. On one hand, I appreciated the cozy atmosphere and pet-friendly policies, which made traveling with my dogs a breeze. However, I faced some issues with cleanliness and inconsistency in the dining offerings, especially during breakfast. The value for what I paid felt lacking, especially with those concerns in mind.
I had high hopes for this hotel based on its reputation, especially for events, but my experience was mixed. While the rooms were generally clean and well-maintained, I faced some significant issues with service and essential amenities like hot water. Pricing seemed steep considering the inconveniences during my stay.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel, especially enjoying its cozy and inviting atmosphere. The rooms were impeccably clean and comfortable, making for a restful getaway. The on-site dining options were excellent, with delicious food that exceeded our expectations. While the price reflects a higher tier, we felt it was worth it for the quality and service provided.
I had an enlightening experience at this hotel, where the beautiful decor really stood out, especially for events. While the rooms were comfortable and I appreciated the amenities, my checkout was overshadowed by an unsettling rodent encounter. The dining was decent, but some facilities left room for improvement, particularly the pool situation during my stay.
