it is an old, historic hotel, ful of charm but the rooms are small and I do wish they would get new carpeting because it looks dirty. But the sheets and bathrooms are extremely clean. I enjoy being there.

The room was very nice, nicely furnished. The bathroom was very spacious. I’m not a fan of glass enclosed showers, but it looked great. The staff was very attentive. The carpeting on the stairs and down the hallway is in need of replacement, and lumpy in spots. The staff was very attentive. I enjoyed my stay.

Good location, pretty from the outside. Rooms are uncomfortable. First, plan on carrying your luggage upstairs, no elevators. No place in the bathroom to put anything, not great for getting ready. One suitcase holder, no tables or chair for additional. Smallest tv I’ve ever seen. Checked out a day early.

If you want to visit the cutest town with friendly people at the hotel and the shops, this is the place to stay. The hotel is walking distance to restaurants, bars, boutique shops, antique shops and entertainment. We never had to use our car and there’s a free ride app to take you around the town too. The hotel has 3 restaurants and gorgeous scenery surrounding it. We loved it!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel is awful. Terrible condition. Worn out. Badly in need of total makeover. Rooms are disgraceful. $350/night & room was crap: filthy carpet, worn out furnishings, no hot water, 1950s style bathroom. What a rip off. I wouldn’t let my dog stay there. Food & bar was way below par. Room wasn’t ready & we arrived 1hour ahead of checkin & still couldn’t have our room ready by check-in time. Hotel should have paid us to stay there. Liquidate it & sell to a real hotel management business. If asked, I’ll share our terrible experience.

Room was apart from main Inn. I booked because I wanted to stay in main Inn. Room was minimal. No chair… toiletries for 1 person not 2. Spoke to desk staff about my desire to stay main inn. Was blown off and told location had same features as inn. It did not. Most disappointed.

Overall, I would stay here again if I went to an event in Mount Dora. The hotel is ideally located within walking distance of everything, it's clean, the grounds are beautiful, the staff is friendly. Weather was too cold to enjoy the big porch with rocking chairs and lakefront viewing, but that was just mother nature. The hotel is "vintage" and is staying with that theme, which is okay. Got no problem with that, however the room, for as much as it cost per night needed some updating - carpet is old and dingy, bedspread was too "grandma" for me, and very little artwork on the walls. Seems as though they could do much better in the rooms. Having said that, the king bed was super comfy, towels clean, etc.
