Had a great stay
Rooms are clean and wonderful
Staff are friendly however being a slower time
Restaurant was not open the times we were there and breakfast did not include the price ever?
Only major problem was the internet which they they acknowledged but it really needs to be resolved in this day and age. Especially because the TVs are only used with a fire stick provided but without proper
Internet never worked . Fire pit was not allowed to be used and I would suggest more comfortable seats in the garden as it’s beautiful .
Otherwise a lovely unique hotel! Make sure to ask
For main floor if stairs do not work for you.

As a fan of gothic novels, I was obsessed with this hotel. It's old, yet renovated so everything feels clean and modern. The restaurant was top-notch and served my favorite tea brand, Rare Tea. Being able to text the concierge for reservations or sauna scheduling was extremely convenient. This was one of my favorite hotel stays ever!

This hotel is okay - we had a comfortable stay but it was nothing remarkable, and for the price point we expected MUCH more. A few things advertised online were not received, and the concierge services weren't particularly helpful. There are better places to stay in the County that offer similar amenities and better customer service, for less. We will not be staying again.

Beautiful property but beware of noise
The property is gorgeous and the room nice. The big drawback was loud outdoor parties going on at Merrill and next door too. Noise made it hard to go to sleep and then woken up at midnight by someone banging on our door. People should be warned that event space is being rented out and that it will be loud until late.

The property next door held an outdoor wedding reception adjacent to our bedroom. . The music & party went on until almost midnight. The loud noise in our room prevented us from sleeping until the party was over.
