Mixed messages

There were two small piles of beard clippings on the floor of the bedroom. There was a long cobweb hanging from the bathroom ceiling. The “cold” water faucet in the bathroom ran HOT unless you let the water run at least 3-5 minutes. Sometimes it was so hot you couldn’t hold your hand under the water! On the other hand, everyone was very friendly and the breakfast was excellent.

Lovely setting

We loved so many aspects of this hotel: breakfast at Jessica’s, historical architecture of the buildings, helpfulness of the staff, etc. We stayed in a room with no comfortable chair, just a couple padded footstools. We almost needed a ladder to climb into the bed. The mattress was very firm. One day the towels weren’t picked up nor the room refreshed though we asked for this service. They did rectify this later in the day. Our room was on the second floor which was difficult for 2 older people without an elevator and hauling luggage up and down stairs. The gardens on the grounds are lovely.

I was not informed that we would be staying “off campus “, if you will. Would have appreciated knowing that. Walls very thin in our room and bath tiny. But—a very hefty price for cramped quarters and worn and shabby furnishings.
