We had a lovely stay at this hotel! The room was very clean and comfortable, and the view from our window was absolutely beautiful—definitely a highlight. There’s a restaurant on-site that looked great, though we didn’t have the chance to try the food this time. One thing to be aware of: there are stairs to get to the rooms, which made carrying luggage a bit challenging. Also, the parking lot is a bit beat up with some uneven spots, so just be cautious when pulling in or walking through. Despite those minor issues, the overall experience was great. A peaceful, scenic place that we’d definitely consider returning to.

The property was right on Route 1. There's a restaurant on the first floor and they have really amazing food. There are lots of places to go to, but you’ll have to drive by the mountains which all had mostly paved roads.The room itself is clean. There's a common room for coffee and tea, and a fridge that can be used. The staff were friendly.
