"Arrived late night, around 1-1:30am. Checked in, then went back to my car to decompress after a long day. Listened to the audiobook of Barbra Streisand narrating her memoir and played Gardenscapes on my phone. Police officer approached my vehicle. Harassed me about what I was doing. I didn’t understand why. Turns out he thought I bought heroin in the hotel and then shot up in my car and ODed. Even after explaining the amusing misjudgment, he still didn’t believe me and kept shining his light in my backseat. I’m glad he checked on me, but it says a lot about the hotel! “It’s obviously a haven for druggies,” he said at one point. "

"Great hotel with beautiful location and very friendly staff. The restaurant was also really good!"

"The staff was friendly and helpful. They let me know of options for food and beverage which was nice. But the lodge could use some updating. Room was mostly clean but found an old hair tie by a bed and it smelled musty. We were only staying one night and it was inexpensive. "

"Was good"

"Everything was great however the breakfast cud be improved. The hot water for tea was room temp. The coffee was not great either. The eggs were very salty. "

"The overall hotel is clean. Our room was clean and comfortable with no noise issues. In fact, that was probably one of the comfier beds in comparison to other hotels I’ve stayed in around the country! The common areas were tidy but worn down. I could see how travelers would see it as dirty but everything I saw was just signs of normal wear and tear - rust around areas that are frequently mopped or wet from pool travel, dust build up in nooks and crannies, and grout buildup. The worst of it was the elevator which had broke buttons and rusty panels. It’s clear the staff take care of the hotel regardless. The pool area was crowded and the pool was surprisingly so warm I wondered how anyone was getting in the hot tub but my toddler LOVED it. The only issue we encountered was other guests but the hotel can only do so much. Not everyone respects public areas, it is what it is. We didn’t grab complimentary breakfast (we went out) but it was packed and everything looked and smelled amazing. Overall great experience!"

"Friendly staff, good food and interesting historical building. "

"I really didn't stay there! I was afraid for my life...as there was a load of rats. All over the property. I asked the morning desk clerk about breakfast. But she thru me out. She told me I didn't deserve any-thing? Anti-American staging!"

"Front desk person was extremely rude. Left early due to a leak in the ceiling. Offered to move my room but then i asked for a refund he said i would have to talk to expedite but didnt say he was unwilling too. Left instead of switching & tried to get a refund for the days i didn’t stay. Expedia said its up to the hotel & called he said i won't give him a refund & i told him that & offered to accommodate the room due to the leak & supposedly i chose to leave. Maybe be direct about your intention & not rude & stingy Would not recommend this place. "
