The room was quite large and clean. The property was quiet. The housekeeping staff was quiet. The front desk staff was polite. The only nitpick things I can come up with is that there were mouse droppings on the outside window ledge and the shower water draining seemed to make water back up into the bathtub. I enjoyed the old world charm.

My Favorite Place to Stay
It’s always a great stay at The Carlton. It’s clean, the rooms are very spacious and the staff are always welcoming and friendly. After discovering this gem it’s the only place I stay. It’s in walking distance to restaurants and there’s a delicious homemade ice shop directly across the street. You can’t go wrong at The Carlton.

The property in all other ways look spotless, the room was beautiful, however my wife found two false eyelashes left in behind on the shower stall shelf by prior occupants, made for a an ewwwww moment and left us with a gross impression.

This hotel turns 100 years old soon and let me tell you what's great about this place and other older hotels: • large rooms • windows that open for fresh air • charm and character The handsome decor here made me feel like I was in Richard Gilmore's library. Loved the friendly staff, bakery next door and wonderful old Sylvester's down the street. Also appreciated that both beds had an expansive upholstered bench at the foot of the bed where we could set our stuff. Plenty of closet and drawer space. So many newer hotels have nowhere to put anything! Cute little coffee nook and the biggest bathroom ever. SUPER comfortable beds and pillows. Thank you Hotel Carlton! All the stars!
The lobby - so warm and welcoming. The staff was very nice! I liked that we could take the elevator or stairs.
Look at all that room - we could have done cartwheels!
Loved waking up to blue skies and fresh air through windows that actually open
