Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel is quaint. The room was spacious and the bathroom was updated and very nice. My quibble is that the heater in the room did not work at all so I was very cold. The front desk is only manned from 6:00 a.m - 12:00 a.m. and I didn't arrive until 12:30 a.m. so there was no one to address my concerns about the heat (although I'm not sure they could have fixed it that night anyway). When I mentioned the issue to the desk clerk when I checked out, he showed very little concern about it.
