Beautiful hotel. Check your bill twice before you leave.
Pros:

Great ambiance and location

Cons:

Had an issue with payment. The hotel messed up on their end and hounded us for two weeks afterward because of their error. The restaurant was very crowded when we arrived and servers were stretched thin.

Pros:

I loved the rustic old feeling. The hotel was just absolutely beautiful. The Christmas decorations were so well done to match with the interior of the inside. The staff was absolutely great.

More upscale than I usually select but fun and worth the price.
Cons:

I prefer a firm mattress. I found the mattress a little saggy for my preference but otherwise adequate.

My stay is always great.
Pros:

The stay at The Read House is always great.

Cons:

I don't like the fact that you can't tip the Valet people on your credit card. I usually stay for work, and I would like to use my corporate credit card to tip the Valey attendant.
