Noah at the front desk was friendly, helpful and professional. She was wonderful. Our room was changed so we had a wonderful view of the Vermont mountains. The grounds were groomed and just as advertised.

I would not stay at the Palmer House again. First day of arrival we were told no outdoor pool as it was being repaired. On our second day, there was no hot water until the following afternoon. The bathroom and living area were dirty and the beds were very firm. We asked about a discount for the lack of hot water and they said, well it came back on in the afternoon, but I explained we had hiked the day before and were not able to take hot showers that evening or morning and had plans to go out for the day. Overall the service and property was not what I expected to experience.

The property is somewhat misleading. The photos depict a large century home and we were under the impression we would be staying there. The property is actually laid out like a motel with rows of rooms adjoined. Parking is behind each unit. All are ground level. The room is quite large with a separate mini kitchen beside the bathroom. The property is clean, and decent for the price. Not luxurious or fancy but suitable for a night or 2 while passing through or skiing in winter.
