"Reserved a king bed room, had to settle for 2 queen beds. Water was leaking through floor tiles, changed rooms. Room we agreed to had a big cobweb in corner of room and a lot of hair in bathroom. Staff was pleasant with what they have to work with. Would not recommend. "

"Clean room, staff and breakfast "

"We loved the Maxwell House! Our host was amazing, called to check in on us and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was so cute, we felt at home the minute we walked in the front door. The living area was a comfortable and cozy place to hang out and visit. The kitchen was actually very well appointed, which was a plus to us as our college student wanted home cooked meals rather than eat out! We used the grill to cook steaks as well! The beds and pillows were so comfortable, obviously a lot of thought and care went into furnishing this perfect little house! I highly recommend this home if you are visiting your college student or just passing through. Go visit the downtown area on Main Street, so many cute shops! We had a great trip, enhanced by the very positive experience of having a wonderful place to 'come home' to! "

"Ridiculed at by the owner for having a service dog and told Ellie, my service dog, that she was sorry that I didn’t love her. Ellie is my protector and I love her as much as she loves me. The woman then wanted to charge me a Pet Fee, requested papers on my service dog and wouldn’t allow us to stay in the room we booked. ALL ILLEGAL UNDER THE ADA. I am not going to take action, but I hope the owner reads this. CONSEQUENCES OF ADA NON-COMPLIANCE FOR HOTELS.
