So Noisy. Did not get much sleep due to noisy rooms next to ours and really no sound barrier. We could hear everything going on next door and across the hall. We will not go back.

I ve been staying at this property several times a year for over 10 years. On this stay the single elevator did not work for several days. The attitude from the front desk was rude and disinterested as we had large suitcases to bring down 3 floors. The hotel has gone down a bit especially the staff at front desk

Upon checking into our room on the 3rd floor we were pleased with the accommodations. However things broke down when it came time for ice. A machine was conveniently located but, alas, it wasn't functioning. No big deal, just go down one floor BUT the elevator was on the fritz at 4 in the afternoon. The elevator only worked intermittently through our check out the next morning at 9. Major inconvenience when getting luggage out. Obvious bad maintenance makes one wonder what isn't functioning behind the scenes.

No accessible bathrooms in the Inn
I liked the layout of the room. It was clean and spacious. My only problem I had was that I requested an accessible bathroom due to me needing double hip replacement surgery. I reserved the last one they had according to the site but when my wife went to check us in they said they only had one in the entire hotel. Needless to say that it took me an hour to shower.
