I read both the good and bad reviews before reserving to be honest I had my doubts before the actual arrival.
For context, I’ve travelled quite a bit, stayed in some of the best hotels and generally I’m a picky person. Let me tell you that this is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. What a cute soulful place!!
Check in was a breeze, they let me do so early even. The room was spacious, neat, the bathroom was impeccably clean (and white so u can actually see how clean it is).
no bugs in the room (I checked). But obviously if you sleep w the windows open you’ll invite the nocturnal fauna in your room. They have portable air conditioners in the room to compensate, though I agree that window screens would do wonders in this case.
The lake views are of course unmatched.
The restaurant was very reasonably priced, food was delicious and hearty.
Some reviews commented on lack of luggage ramp and I only had a backpack but how can one complain about this given the historic beauty of this building? It’s only a few steps up & the property sent me a message ahead of time offering to help with luggage at arrival. That is 5 star service to me.
One thing I regret is that I didn't get a chance to see the inside of the building much to feel the history bc I was with my niece and for just one night we had very little time in the hotel. I will make sure to see it one day to try to imagine the splendor of this place in its day.
Overall, a 5 star stay in a beautiful town.
