We absolutely loved the view, the staff, and the breakfast! We also enjoyed dinner there one night. It was delightful to arrive and hear music (violin and keyboard) being played ny the fabulous outdoor cafe area. The public area (restroom and restaurant) were nicely updated and having onsite parking was a huge bonus.
My only suggestion is that the winter be used to replace and update the carpeting leading to the guest rooms and inside of the guest rooms. It was worn, almost shabby. The time has come to put in a smart, patterned carpet such as seen in the nicer hotels; it would not show dirt and would hopefully tie into the decor in the public area. The same wood used in the public area bathrooms would look great for the doors and trim to all the guest rooms and office upstairs and continue a refreshed look!
The bed was comfy and lighting was adequate. Updates had been made in the bathroom and, except for the old caroeting, everything else was pleasing. I had a hard time looking at the carpeting each time we same in. Maybe others wouldn't care but it turned me off because I couldn't accept that in my own home. Otherwise all was great!
