The grounds and lobby are fantastic. On-site restaurant was great. Room was spacious and clean - only minor complaints were that there is no light in the shower and no fan (or so weak of one we couldn’t hear it) in the bathroom, but everything else was perfect. Easy walk to everything in Salem. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful decor, parking right on the property. The rooms were beautiful as well. my one complaint is finding 3 stickon eyelash clumps on my bed sheets. Makes me wonder how often the sheets are changed. I personally do not wear eye lashes, was very surprised to find them on the bed sheets upon getting into the bed.
