I really like the large anthracite coal figurines in the lobby. This hotel is located in a coal mining town and the presentation was wonderful. There were some local restaurants within walking distance. Thanks for the experience, John

8/10 Very good

Staff was helpful and kind. Hotel is beaultiful and the courtyard is a lovely place to sit and relax/mingle. Rooms are clean and beds are super comfy. Water pressure and tempt in the shower leave you wanting more, towels are really thin and they barely give you enough for one person so be sure to ask for extra. There are no phones in the rooms so if you need anything you have to go downstairs. The vending machines were not working during our stay and the market in the lobby was not fully stocked with beverages (water and diet soda) but it was a busy weekend. Come prepared with extra water and drinks to have in the room. The in room fridge is a really decent size and the coffee pods they provide for the in room keruig is actually really good.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Complimentary breakfast was a bonus. Our only complaint was that there wasn’t enough hot water to shower and the hotel was noisy at night. We used a white noise app on our phones and that did the trick to drown out the noise. Overall was a very pleasant stay and we would come back again.
