This is the second time we have stayed at this beautiful inn! Again, our expectations were met! The room, The Falls, was beautiful and spacious! Jada, welcomed us with a beautiful smile and made sure we had everything! My hat off to the chief for a delicious breakfast every morning! The servers were great! Alyssa and Molly will take care of you at breakfast and any other time! Mr. Baldwin, who greeted us every morning at breakfast wanted to know how our stay was going! Thanks you for a wonderful stay!

We had a problem with our thermostat in our room not working. Since we were a late arrival, the problem was addressed first thing the next morning. We had a problem with our server at the Founders restaurant for breakfast. The server definitely had an attitude, and when I questioned her, she of course denied it, and she left early so that I never received my breakfast until the next staff came on!! However, owner arrived the next morning with replacement staff and made everything right for a happy ending. All is well that ends well. Lovely historic building with very large rooms.

The Hotel is an Historic Inn and it is a fantastic example of a bed & breakfast. The building, itself, as well as furniture, sitting rooms, lamps, accents, all had an authentic look and were pristine and beautifully placed. The hotel provided a split of wine to enjoy in the evening. The breakfast service was great, being a formal hot sit down meal with several options; and ours were perfectly prepared. There were a couple of unfortunate surprises. First is that there is no elevator and a steep winding staircase leads to the upstairs rooms. Not a problem for us - it's an Historic Inn after all - but others may have difficulty. More unsettling was that our bath - altho private - was down the hall. The Inn did provide robes for us to use, but the trip past a few other occupied rooms was a little uncomfortable. Had this been indicated upfront, we would have been better prepared or made other arrangements. Finally, the Inn has plenty of parking behind the building, but the route there requires moving 2 lanes to the right on an exit ramp from the expressway. Again, not a problem for us, but it does require some care. Overall, a lovely building and a good value, but guests need to know the circumstances.

Enjoyed our brief stay. Had a room without an adjoining bathroom but it was just down the hall. Took a minute to get used to but worked out fine for me and my wife. Would have brought slippers had we known. Aside from that no issues.
