The room was extremely outdated, no thermostat to control temp (it was freezing from the AC), uncomfortable bed and pillows, and the sink water never ran warm/hot! They only had a continental breakfast available with no options for hot breakfast food. For the amount this was nightly, it was far below expectations especially for a 4 star hotel. Views were the only good thing.

While the property was beautiful and the room was clean and comfy, we were really disappointed with our stay. There was a wedding that evening and our room was right above the venue so it was loud (sounded like we were in a karaoke bar) until very late and then everyone was hanging out partying right outside the bedroom windows. We hardly slept and wished this could have been a room reserved for wedding attendees and we could have been somewhere far away. Definitely not upset with the wedding party, but the hotel shouldn't have put us there.

If you love and appreciate history, you’ll enjoy this property. The main house, setting and views, in particular, are spectacular. It’s mainly used for wedding and group events and we could see why - the views from the main dining room are “Wow”. It’s doesn’t have an elevator which wasn’t a problem for us. Some of the later additions could have been more sensitive to the original house in terms of finishes and HVAC placement, but maybe that’s what was available at the time. Some updates could really make the building sing again. Our room was spotless. We thought it was very good value. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. We would definitely visit again.

Hotel is historic and really charming... However, there are many areas of improvements to be considered: 1. There is no in-room control for heating/cooling as it is controlled centrally. 2. No extra blankets provided in the closets 3. Breakfast is waaaaay lower than our expectations for such a nice hotel building: Not manned (nobody to help), no sliced bread provided (only bagels), no hot items (no scrambled eggs, no pancakes, no waffles or sausages), no hot milk for those preferring cereals that way, no honey as sweetner option, only one type of fruit provided (cut pineapples). 4. If there is a wedding on the night you're staying, don't expect to be able to sleep before midnight, as the noise and DJ banging is audible and you could hear (and feel) in your bed!! Briefly, great building and nice staff... everything else is disappointing. Note to management: You can make this place a heavenly hotel if you do a little bit more in the areas I highlighted. Thank you

The grounds, and the area on the water, are so beautiful. We had a great deal for a big old handsome room. We did have the compressors outside our window and there were tents and music as they set up for a wedding, but I enjoyed the old fireplaces and wide stairs and feel of the old building. And the bed was very comfy.
