Disliked: Staff & service
I was very disappointed in the customer service at the front desk. Very rude customer service that did not follow through on their job. Paid and confirmed reservation days prior to check in to a room that was not what I had booked. No explanation and no accommodations or compensation even offered. Also was told we would be moved and contacted and never heard from the front desk. no manager or owner available on weekends to even speak too. Very unprofessional from one business owner to another and I will definitely make sure to make other aware of this

Comfortable and good location
The hotel is clean with many amenities. 24 hour coffee machine that can make lattes. Breakfast was good and had a lot of different choices and many gluten free items. Hotel was clean and spacious. It’s connected to a restaurant. The room was clean and well laid out. Bathroom is a bit dated, but clean

The WiFi service was spotty and slow. This seriously detracted from our stay, and accounts for the Terrible rating.

Rooms were not cleaned in the time we were there. Had to ask for extra towels. Put in an area with the dogs, they barked continuously. Should be a section completely separte or you should be asked preference as a courtesy.

The pro-Trump anti-Kamala sign was a turn off, but cross the state line from Vermont into New Hampshire and suddenly you're in MAGA country so I guess it's not surprising. Room was about as you'd expect for a BW, except the mattress was uncomfortable due to being oddly tilted down toward the head of the bed. We slept with our heads at the foot of the bed which worked out ok. The room was adequate and the breakfast area was nice.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your hotel. Our room, the communal spaces and the grounds were spot on clean. Safety concerns were alleviated by numerous outside lights.
