I’ve been staying at Boone Tavern for 5 years once or twice a month. The beds are so comfortable. The staff is great to
Pros:

The location the building. Everything

Cons:

They have remodeled their dining room. It is lovely! At first, the food was good again but over the last few months, menu keeps changing. I understand this . Just wish the Chef would create healthier choices for those with dietary restrictions

This was a charming & unique historical stay!
Pros:

We loved the history of this hotel and that so many of the local college students are involved in running it. The restaurant inside was also a bright spot during our stay. Everyone was so kind and friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Honestly.. just the bed. It was not the most comfortable, but the uniqueness and charm of the place definitely made up for it.

Cute historic hotel near college campus
Pros:

Comfortable beds and good shower. Mini fridge in room. Clean. Real towels in the lobby washroom. Ceramic cups and glasses in the rooms instead of plastic. Luxury soap, shampoo, conditioner

Cons:

There needs to be coffee in the lobby in the morning.

This was a quick sleepover on our trip. The room was comfortable and the food delicious.
Pros:

The breakfast was delicious and freshly made. The granola was the best.
Also, enjoyed the atmosphere of the lobby areas as well as the quietness in our room.

Cons:

The bed was a bit small but really can't be helped because the room size is small. Not something I would consider a big minus. Very comfortable still.

Great history but needs a refresh.
Pros:

Great concept - old and pretty

Cons:

It was a bit dirty- they have students working there and maybe they don’t know how to clean well.
