Ethan Allen Hotel

Ethan Allen Hotel

2/10 Terrible
"TERRIBLE - Stay Away!! I've driven by this hotel many times and ASSUMED that with the ETHAN ALLEN name on it that it would be a very nice hotel. The facility is a time capsule that hasn't been touched or cleaned since the 1990s ! Torn and wrinkled carpets, banged up and dirty walls, tattered shades and drapes, dirty furniture, and the entire place SMELLED like a combination of musk and dirty feet. Went into the restaurant 20 minutes before closing and the bartender told me (and 2 other guests) he could only make me a drink TO GO and that we couldn't stay in to drink it. Very disappointed........"
