A historic hotel yet very clean . A unique setup with check in and check out. A lot of dining options around the hotel in a small, quaint town.

The Blanche was lovely. We booked at the last minute and never saw a human because it’s code-based entry but the service was excellent. The person on the other end of the texts and emails was very friendly, helpful and responsive.

Stop over in Lake City
Beautifully restored old Hotel. Since there was no front desk, there was a lack of information, such as where to park. Perhaps some kind of welcome pack would have been nice. It would contain parking info., and Restaurant recommendations, delivery option etc.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Really liked the no-touch/no-complications checkin/out. Room was great, good space and clean... loud appliance on the counter (dehumidifier?) was really loud but we turned it to Low and was fine. Will stay again if overnighting in the area, definitely. All things equal, the only drawbacks are pricey and parking was not as close as usual hotel/motel lots are
