We enjoyed our stay here, the room was very clean and the bed was comfortable! The heater in the room made a lot of loud noises (loud bangs every few minutes) which made it irritating while trying to sleep, but otherwise everything was great!

Excellent restaurant and coffee shop. Location is perfect for walking down the Main Street with all the shops. The room was meticulous and bed and pillows were crazy comfortable. The hot tub looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while (scum on the sides) but other than that the hotel was fabulous!!
