Property itself was cute with the “antique” vibe, but that’s about it. They had no breakfast as they claimed, no coffee, no water….no local businesses for even convenience. Rooms looked like a haunted asylum, windows were filthy, and the bathroom was ehhh. No one at front desk, no one to ask if everything was good. This would be more akin to a shoddy air bnb as opposed to a hotel or even lodge. Overall the stay was mediocre at best. I wouldn’t recommend this place nor would I stay here again. BOOO

Cool place to stay
The room was very comfortable and had plenty of room for both of us. The bed was comfortable as well. The staff very helpful. The only thing we would have like was a desk chair. The pictures of the prior school were very interesting.
