Our room was dirty upon check in. There was an old grape and personal information on a folded piece of paper. We did let the front desk know. The restaurant is not good and the drinks all had floating black specs in it - which means mold. Even though it was convenient, I dont see us returning.

Miss Chris was super helpful at check in and Adam was such a gracious driver- helping to get us to dinner on time! The hotel was perfectly decorated for the season and the suite was clean and comfortable! We were able to walk everywhere and felt very safe. Each person we met was very nice and helpful!
Spooky lobby!
Easy check in with fresh water set out all day and warm cookies!

The grounds and lobby are fantastic. On-site restaurant was great. Room was spacious and clean - only minor complaints were that there is no light in the shower and no fan (or so weak of one we couldn’t hear it) in the bathroom, but everything else was perfect. Easy walk to everything in Salem. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
