Reviews

Lynn Sep 13, 2025 06:26:39 AM
Summary: OK. Quiet. Comfortable bed. Good coffee but rest of breakfast like a 2 star at best. Room very small . Price good. You get what you pay for.
Robert Sep 8, 2025 04:00:47 AM
Summary: Great location in quaint room.
GEORGE Sep 5, 2025 10:48:25 PM
Summary: GFM Hotel has a lot of potential considering its age. The front desk staff is very good. Our K-bedded room was furnished with antiquey pieces, some of which were much too big for the room, making it seem crowded. HVAC control was not typical, with no in-room instructions, so we had to ask front desk how it works. Bathroom was very clean, step-over tub/shower, linens were good. Breakfast was adequate, more like a typical mid-range chain hotel, not a "boutique" hotel. The restaurant which may be under independent management, is haphazard, trying too hard to be different.
Jere Aug 26, 2025 09:51:40 PM
Summary: The staff was super helpful and patient and kind. The hotel is beautiful and interesting and enjoyed staying in Downtown Marion where I met the proprietress of the Downtown Re-Sale Boutique and spent a lovely couple of hours visiting with her.
Karen Aug 23, 2025 04:04:42 PM
Summary: The staff is exceptional and the room and premises clean, as always!
Elizabeth Aug 20, 2025 03:29:14 AM
Summary: It was wonderful except for all the steps that part was very hard on my husband
Stanislav Jul 31, 2025 12:00:21 AM
Summary: Place was clean. Plumbing was perfect. Rooms don't live up to the pictures and were a bit smaller than expected. TVs are small and old.
Andrew Jul 26, 2025 05:48:10 AM
Summary: AC was very noisy. Front desk person always seemed to be on the computer or phone.
Timothy Jul 11, 2025 02:03:46 AM
Summary: Historic hotel was clean and comfortable, but a bit too historic. There were no USB outlets of any kind and few electrical outlets which limited the ability to charge various electronic devices.
Karen Jul 8, 2025 06:07:48 AM
Summary: The staff was fantastic as aways. Only complaint was that the AC fan in my room was so loud that I couldn't sleep. Needed to stay 1 more night and asked for different room which was great
