Delightful hotel. I have recommended it to several friends and would tell anyone to stay there.
Pros:

The breakfast room was very comfortable and interesting. The food was excellent. Delicious coffee cake, a great green chile crustless quiche. The lady was very attentive and made our stay memorable with her stories of the hotel and it's history.

Cons:

Wish the dinning room had been open on our stay.

Fun historic stay for a night along the road.
Pros:

Cute historical building. Good history, with handy pamphlets for interested parties like us. Well-cared-for garden patio. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, one of whom told us about a scenic detour along our route to Colorado that was gorgeous - totally worth the extra time and never would have known to take it otherwise. Jack the hotel cat was a highlight.

Cons:

I've had better breakfasts, though the breakfast lady was very friendly and the atmosphere was nice. There was a some pet hair on the bedspread, so we must have been in a pet room despite not having a pet, which was mostly a bummer because my husband has allergies. Clean besides. We also missed the open nights for the bar, which was sad, though there was no helping that with our travel schedule!

A fair price for a great location. I wish them well.
Pros:

Location excellent. Breakfast was OK. The hotel is historic and the hosts are obviously trying hard to keep it going.

Cons:

Room was small, with noisy air conditioner. The bathroom was great. Pillowcases were stained (reportedly a problem with the hotel’s new dryer).

A great historic hotel.
Pros:

This is a historic hotel in a western town. It is decorated appropriately for its age and well cared for. The management is very present and helpful. The breakfast was more than the standard hotel fare. We had an excellent burrito and coffee cake.

Cons:

This is not an unexpected feature but the rooms are small.
