The staff is just top notch, and that really says alot in and of itself about this establishment! VERY clean place. Classy. I liked the high ceilings. It made the room feel huge. Bed was super comfy. Pillows could have been better, but we won't take away any stars for that because there were like 5 on the bed, plus extras in the closet, as well as extra blankets, which I really appreciated. At any other place I've stayed at, you get 2 or 3 flat pillows and definitely no extras! I loved the bathroom. Very quiet. Ice cold air. The girls came in and made my bed for me while I was out (extra star for that)! A little bit on the pricey side, but it was a convenient location for me, so I was willing to pay the extra. I liked that there is a covered garage. There were lots of seating areas outside. Decorated nicely. Waterfall and lights were a nice touch. Worth the $150-200/night price tag?? That's still up for debate, but I'd definitely stay again. A pool and/or spa on site might make it worth that price point for me. It's cool that you can use the YMCA's amenities, but they close super earlier, leaving limited time for use. Keep doing what you're doing, Hotel Anthracite!

This is an amazing hotel in the heart of a sleepy city, with great amenities, very accommodating staff, and exceptionally clean rooms. I also enjoyed and appreciated the warm, welcoming lobby. Morning breakfast staff was helpful, positive, and made me feel at home. I will definitely recommend this hotel!

Room was fine but we walked in and immediately smelled cigarette smoke despite it being a smoke-free hotel. Hotel bar was not open on a Saturday night, which was unfortunate since the entire bridal party was planning on going there post wedding reception.
