the hotel, while not the most updated, was nice, well run, and on beautiful grounds. No AC or elevators, but accommodating staff and nice restaurant and bar options. there were two proms on the property back to back which we did not get a heads up about… it made parking very difficult which was not ideal after coming back from a day trip.

Food needs more care

Good selection of food for breakfast, would have been even better if it was hot, instead of just warm. In all probability I will not return
