No winery view here, more like stepping back in time, nice vintage throwback hotel with lots of character. In all fairness they are in middle of a remodel that no one told us about.. . But lots to do walking distance. remodel not expected to be done until sometime in December. I would like to see it when completed. Biggest complaint was we reserved a room for 4 people, and you only had 1 chair in room. Had to sit on beds. Oh yeah any chance you can move that fire station, they had a busy Friday night.

Rooms were clean, updating, so it depends on what room you are placed in as to how nice it is. I had multiple good stays until my most recent stay, September 30-October 3rd, when I was bitten by bedbugs on my lower extremities and buttocks. At first I thought it was spiders, but it was your typically three bite pattern.

So many problems. We were literally given keys to a room that someone else was in! There are no secondary locks on the doors. The mattress was so mushy and worn out. It was a very restless night.

We were first given keys and when we opened our door, there was a person and his dog inside sleeping. He jumped up and yelled and I stepped back and apologized profusely! I was so shocked that I was shaking for like an hour afterwards. The next room smelled really strongly of paint. The courtyard doors did not lock properly, nor was there a secondary lock on the entry door, it was not fully furnished and the smoke detectors were still wrapped in plastic, it also did not have a bathtub..which we had paid for a room with a tub. We were moved yet again to a room with a tub and the bed was horrendous. The bed was at a deep slant where I had to sleep with my head where feet go because the blood was rushing to my head. It was also very mushy and had a huge dip in the center. We just dealt with it because it was late and we didn’t want to change rooms for a fourth time. We spoke to the girl at the front desk in the morning and basically got shrugged at. We understand renovations, but basic comfort and safety should still be adhered to.

It’s a nice hotel but lots of construction going on. The room was very basic. AC didn’t work in our room so it was a little hot/humid. Bathroom vent didn’t work either. The town itself is charming though!

The hotel was under construction to a Marriott property. The elevator made a scary scrap-y sound. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. No amenities. No bottled water available. We had stayed years ago snd it was charming snd lovely. Now you felt like it was in need of care We were disappointed
