Diane, Oh my! We're sorry to read you didn't think our beds were comfortable enough. I wonder if the stress and worry of today's world played any factor in your back pain as opposed to our bed. Then again our mattresses are only a year old so maybe the newness is also a factor? We appreciate you being our guest, giving us a try and sharing your perspective for others.

The showers could use a major upgrade. Water left us feeling slimy so not sure it the have a water softeners thats used that and the tub drain was so very slow to drain while the drain was far open as it could be. Left us standing in water up to our ankles. Other than that our brief stay was good. Pillows were decent as well.

We have to face the unfortunate reality that our property is getting older and renovations are needed with our showers before they become a more frequent occurrence. I'm glad you had a good stay otherwise and enjoyed our pillows. Have a lovely evening and please come back again.

I was disappointed that the shower did not have grab bars. My friend and I felt unsafe without them. Grab bars are very helpful and all other hotels I have stayed at, have them.
