Summary: Everything was virtual. Room was okay. Heat was difficult to adjust, room way too hot. Broken blind in bathroom. We had front room on street, lots of noise even with my earplugs. Curtains on windows were not adequate to keep light from porch and street out of room. Probably will not stay here again

Summary: Simple hotel in a good location. Room was clean and comfy. They sent us a door code so we didn't have to worry about the check in time.

Summary: The location and the safety was the only thing good about this room. It was part of the main so I felt safe as a solo traveler. But actually checking into the hotel was difficult, had to do everything online and called two people before one of them called me back to let me in so very slow process. I waited in the lobby for quite some time. Then ended up back at my car waiting until someone called me back so I could go in and check in. I could not get the TV on the remote control seem to be dead so I turned it on with a button on the TV but I couldn’t do anything else. So I shut it back up.I called that same number a couple of times to say the room was freezing cold. No one ever called me back. I looked in every closet in every drawer and could not find any extra blankets and could not find any, so I had to sleep in layers of my clothes and my nose was frozen. I only slept a couple hours and could not get warm so I left and went out to my car and warmed up with the seat heaters. I would definitely not come again and I definitely would not recommend.

Summary: My room was not cleaned prior to my check in late afternoon. Difficult to find hotel staff.
George Sep 29, 2025 01:07:17 AM
Summary: We didn’t expect a fantastic hotel for the price, but we were disappointed by a doorknob coming off, a broken cabinet drawer, and their free wifi would not come up for my wife and I. The AC filter was also filthy and we had to clean it before using the AC. The location is right in the middle of town, and check in and check out is super easy, so that was the hotel’s saving grace.

Summary: Super friendly staff. Nice clean room. Easy parking. We were able to leave the car there and walk to the Park despite checking out. ALSO - You can’t beat the free ice cream ❗️
John Sep 21, 2025 05:20:00 PM
Summary: The property owner was great. Very friendly and welcoming. Great location. Perfect walking distance to the Gorge and Seneca Lake. The room was clean. Our bed was a bit soft but slept well. We would stay again.

Summary: Bed was uncomfortable; floor was filthy; no fan in bathroom; shower stall too smal; no soap dish; only one mirror
Rhonda Sep 18, 2025 11:52:51 PM
Summary: The owners are fantastic! The ice cream was delicious! You can’t beat the location! The facilities were old fashioned, but well cared for. And I feel they compensated for that with a very reasonable price.

Summary: 200 yr old hotel with lots of character. Ice cream is great 👍
