3/5 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness
Liked the theme & location above restaurant we were in town for. Great TV. Didn’t like temperature controls, minimum counter space, lack of hooks, towel bars, shelves near sink, no slow-drop hinge on toilet seat. Only one waste basket & not lined.

It was a lovely hotel with an interesting history. I enjoyed the room and it’s rustic decor. The only negative was the shower did not drain well and we called room service for some snacks and they did not have what we wanted.
