The hotel is old and quaint - with a great bar and restaurant below . The bed was fine but only one window had a shade , climate control was making all kinds of noise . The shower kept fluctuating from hot to cool . There is a little coffee station in the hall. Fuse blew while using it though. We had to wait to check in because no one was there at 9 pm … They had to call someone who arrived 10 min later to give us a key .

Beautiful small town Christmas setting. Extremely comfy bed and room. Only suggestion would be to have some blackout curtains and some sort of coffee station in room or lobby.

Aside from the light over the sink not working and a dripping faucet it was a charming place to stay. I grew up in a house similarly aged so I felt at home.

Not a hotel from hell
I had read about Gordon Ramsay's review of The Brick Inn on his hotels from hell series and was a little apprehensive about staying there since I had booked and paid for it over a month ago we went anyway. The hotel was fine it was clean I miss miss match your furniture large warm TV was on for us when we entered it was fine

While we love historic hotels, we would not stay here again. Room 205 was actually fairly nicely decorated and bed very comfortable. The small folding table in the bathroom is not a replacement for a vanity. The water damage and mold is a constant problem in between the sink and shower and cannot be fixed by multiple layers of plaster. One shade had several tears in it. The music noise from the restaurant was too loud and went until 11:00 pm. The problems with the showers have not been addressed and are terrible.

It was my first time staying in this historic property and I thought the building was very pretty outside and inside. I thought the rooms were a little bit bare and while adequate they lacked the charm of other historical properties where I have stayed. My room (208) was directly over the restaurant and because it was a busy Saturday night, it was loud well into the night. I found the coffee bar convenient but when the half and half and half ran low, it was not replenished. I also felt check in was a little confusing --

I was very disappointed room 309 was very dark and dingey. With dark shutters and old shades. Lights were dark and dull, terrible to put make up on. Never was I told to wash my face with paper towel to remove make up. Decided to wait to get to my home to shower. Would not likely recommend. Sue M.

Lucky we did not have a problem climbing 3 sets of stairs- Old property- room was on a slant - minimal bedding- sheer curtain on 2 windows, with NO Shade or blinds -middle window had a shade- restaurant linen napkins were placed one after the other ~ being used as a bureau cover/doily( It had the same yellow stripe as their dinner napkins at the restaurant. The Lunch at Rocco's was fabulous best part of the stay!

There was no heat. They provided a space heater that scared me and was a bright light all night long. No desk, or anywhere to sit and use laptop or write. No coffee machine. Coffee in the hall, but no decaf. No microwave. No refrigerator or ice machine. No decent lighting. Forget about putting makeup on in the bathroom. I had to carry luggage up and down 2 flights of steps. The floors were severely tilted, I worried that the building was not sound. My stay was a bit scary. I was supposed to go back and stay there again in a few days after I attended a wedding, but I cancelled.

The hotel is in desperate need of remodeling. The shower is yellowish from age, the toilet is so old I don't think they make that color any more. The ceiling needs to be spackled and the floors need to be leveled. Oh and the stairs need more light and are crooked. I would have thought I was drunk but the only thing I drank was water.
