Not so comfortable in Bethlehem
The staff were lovely and very outgoing. They really helped at check in and with luggage taken to our room. The room, however, was small (which for a historic hotel is not strange) and had big, bulky furniture. The bathroom was also small and poorly ventilated, with the water draining very slowly from the tub. The bed was comfortable but we felt a bit claustrophobic in the space, and it had a bad smell like damp basement (again, poor ventilation?) We also found someone's clothes in one of the drawers, which made us wonder how well the room was cleaned.

The staff at this hotel were great! They must have taken notes from Disney. It is a very old and historic hotel. The food was so good! We can’t wait to come back and explore the town!

Making the Best of It
When rain disrupted our plans, we were forced to stay close to the hotel. It proved to be a very comfortable place to weather the storm. Food, drinks and ambiance were spot on. The room was clean and comfortable; good bed, good shower. The location, of course was perfect.

The property was wonderful. Our only issue was we could not get to the hotel at 11:15 at night because Musikfest was happening and the road was closed. We had been assured that we would be able to drive to the hotel during this event. This was not the case, we had to wait 30 min late at night until the police opened the check point.
