TEN stars
I consider myself a traveler. Big cities and little towns. This place would be at the top of my recommendations for a place to stay. Spacious room, comfortable bed and couch. Our stay was in a suite with our dog.
Many choices for the breakfast, delicious dinner and drinks at the restaurant.

Great place to stay
Newly renovated and clean. Staff was amazing. Restaurant was closed, but I’ve heard nothing but good things about it. Continental breakfast was great as well, you could tell it was made from scratch.

Pleasant Suprise! Don't Let the Name Scare You!
I was pleasantly surprised! I recommend suite 9! I had a lovely time at this property. I have stayed more than 200 nights on the road in the last three years and this property currently ranks in my top three over the last few years. Actually, I'm looking forward to coming back for a few nights twice later this year.

Disappointed
The hotel has been recently renovated. The restaurant had good food and beautiful ambience. Our room, however, was not very clean. It was also very small. The complementary breakfast was not good and the coffee was cold.

The stay was great. Restaurant had very good food. I was upgraded to a suite at no cost. My only criticism would be there was no closet or rack to hang my clothes on, no iron/ironing board. Will definitely stay again.
