Very nice reception. Rooms a little small but very nice for two people. Also had a small enclosed patio which was nice for sitting outside. The restaurant served up delicious food and staff very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Loved the classic quant room. Restaurant was great (we sat at the bar), food was spot on - definately worth stopping after a full-day of driving. Really enjoyed the style of the hotel and staff was top-notch.

Pet friendly, clean rooms (small), but we had a courtyard room that helped. The food was good in the dinning room, but the service is absolutely the worst.

Very friendly staff, clean rooms, and well lit parking. The staff even gave my husband a tour of the basement! I love the fireplace to relax and warm up. Doggie potty area was clean and good walking space. The only decent restaurant in town is in the hotel, which was a huge plus. The brussel sprouts was so tasty!
I expected a small plate of Brussel sprouts. This would have been a perfect meal on its own!
