Wonderful

The room was small and poorly laid out. But the bed was comfortable. The stall was good.

Great dinner at the Arms. Checked out very early to be at the hospital for 6am and forgot my fitbit in the room. Maid turned it in so I was able to pick it up later in the day. Much thanks!
This hotel doesn’t have a pool, but on check in they stated they have complimentary access to one nearby. I wish this was listed in their ad when booking so we could have packed accordingly and used the nearby pool.
Mattress and pillows are way too soft, barely get a sleep for the night I gave it 0 out of 10. AC unit is old and loud, luckly it is not kicking on that often as the whole building is warm.
The room and hotel itself was great, as well as the location. The check in was horrible. It took about 45 minutes and our reservation was incorrect despite having contacted both Expedia and the hotel itself. We had multiple rooms book, confirmed multiple times, and upon arrival there was only one room for us. After waiting, they did manage to find us another room to suit our needs but it took arguing with staff to make this happen. Maybe not typical for this to happen here, and the hotel itself was great, but a poor experience to start the stay.
The two night stay was a gift. Hotel acknowledged wedding anniversary with cookies, a bottle of wine and a lovely note! Nice personal ouches. Beautiful suite.
