The discription said the room had a patio. It didn't whatsoever. And the entire interior was very dark. But it was very quaint and clean and located walking distance from our event.

Choo choo!! Blew blew

The hotel has no microwave! You have a fridge and no way to heat items. Ice is only available downstairs! The check in person did not know directions to the room and it is not an accommodating hotel for the price. Parking was ok because the event center took most of it at night. Close to decent restaurants. Overall not impressed!!!

Great place to stay

From check in to check out, this was a great stay. Front desk was friendly and welcoming upon check in. Questions answered quickly. When we checked out, the young lady thanked us for staying with them. Room was spacious with comfortable furniture and really comfortable bedding. It was a bit of a challenge to get the temperature where we wanted it. It was either too warm or too cool. Bathroom was well appointed with good size walk in shower with great water pressure. Body wash, shampoo and conditioner were furnished. Great location close to everything we wanted to do. Next time we will stay in one of the train cars.

Huge puddle in front of my door. I asked them to clear, they did not . Ice was melting from top of my train car so I had to walk through dripping from entry. Ice clumps could have been swept. Instead they fell on my head !

Great area

We absolutely loved the train car room. The area was amazing. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Area was great! We parked at the hotel and never moved our vehicle the whole weekend. So many restaurants and attractions within walking distance. My one draw back was the train car was dark. I completely get the love of the dark green wallpaper and velvet drapes. However, maybe add more than a 25 watt bulb somewhere. The restroom vanity (gorgeous marble btw) is not large enough for makeup and hair. So please add an extra bulb somewhere else :-)
