10/10 Exceptional

Great spot in a cool historic building. It's old, so there are some old features, but it adds char. Rooms were nice and clean and the staff was SO friendly and helpful. I loved the rooftop patio and that they're dog friendly! The only con is that the included breakfast was meh, and everything was served in single-use plastic.

Front desk staff was great. We asked for our room to be made up, and the room was not taken care of. I had to go get fresh towels from the front desk. The room was small but clean. The hotel is cute.

Kristina is AMAZING. My best friend and I do an anual "mom-cation" and stayed here the first year. Kristina was wonderful and was the main reason why we stayed here the following trip (this year) She is knowledgable about things going on in the area, helpful and kind.

6/10 Good

Stayed in a room 314 next to the road. It was very loud starting at 5am motorcycles, buses, trucks all traveling down the same road to work. It t was also very bright. There was no blow dryer or shampoo, the water temperature was very touchy. Bed was comfortable and it was a convenient spot in town and not go explore the mountain forties near by. I would not stay longer than a night.

4/10 Fair

The room was clean and some of the staff were very nice. The sink in our room didn’t drain and this appeared to be a known problem when talking to maintenance. No other room available and after contacting management, there has been no response to my inconvenience. If it wasn’t for this issue, I would rate the facility much better.
