Loved the antique decor and fireplace in the room. The parking was very convenient. Loved the rooftop patio. The hotel is conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, the historic lift bridge, and the riverboat cruises. The hotel was very clean and the staff very friendly. Would definitely stay there again.

The room we were in was VERY old and not clean, especially the bathroom. Please understand that some of the rooms at this property are old/vintage while others are newer and more modern. We unfortunately were on the old section. Jets in the whirlpool tub were filthy and while, even in clean I would never use a hotel hot tub in a guest room, it was quite off putting. I noted the cleaning staff did not carry a vacuum only a lint roller type of device to go over the carpeting. Also, I found various cobwebs throughout the room. Decor is very very very old, which might be some people's taste but it is old ornate type of furniture which was in desperate need of a good dusting. I will say, the location of this property is ideal, In the heart of all the action. Stillwater is an amazing town, this property just needs some MAJOR updates.

4:00 check in is a little late , for the price of a room you could at least have a mini fridge. Room wasn’t that nice. Just a typical run down hotel room. I’ve stayed at this hotel before and loved it. This time was very unsatisfied.

This hotel canceled our reservations an hour before checkin without explanation. They suggested another place to stay but wasn’t in the location we wanted. They were nice about it but it still somewhat ruined our day.

The older bolnd lady that worked the front dest was very rude. The room sated pet friendly and that all taxes and fees were included. She tried to tell me my room was not pet friendly after driving from AZ with my dogs. Then she charged me more taxes and pet fees. Also when I called to get into the patking lot she told me I could not check in untill Tuesday after 11 am. I said it is Tuesday ar 6:30 pm. The bed was way too soft and both the chairs sagged in the middle. I would not reccomed staying here. The location is good but they do not have microwaves, refrigerators or even an ice machine. For the price there is a lack of amenities. Rude people should not be working the front desk.

Great location, nice staff, but I booked a "cheap" rate on Expedia site. My room was a really "sad"---goodwill furniture, the bathroom was terrible (no pressure, poor lighting), no fridge, no ice, thin walls, etc. No plans stay this hotel again.

The front lobby is part of a small new section and looks very nice. Our room was in the old section of the hotel. It was clean but very dated. Wallpaper and carpet looked very old. Same with the bed and bathroom.
