I want a full refund or credit for a future stay. I have recordings of what I listened to all night but am not able to s
Pros:

I was looking forward to staying here after a recent stop on my way to Rhode island. I booked 1 night for Oct 17. After being on the road for a week and staying at Homewood suites and comfort hotels, I was treating myself to what appeared to be a wonderful place.

Cons:

When I checked in the young lady at the desk let me know that the room she had for me was accessible from inside the hotel as well as outside from the parking lot. She asked if that was ok with me. I said yes. The room was very comfortable and once I had room service replace the creamers for coffee because they were all old and dried out I settled to rest as I really needed it. At 8:30 music started playing and continued until after 11:30. While it was appropriate for the wedding it shook my room for the entire time. I contacted the front desk and a message came that they would get back to me asap. No one did. After developing a migraine from all the banging I slept for 2 hours and then got on the road for another 8 hours.
Before leaving I let the front desk know that I was extremely displeased and should have been notified that an event was planned so that I might plan accordingly. The young lady whom I spoke with was the same person who checked me in and said oh I am sorry about that. Nothing else

Good value for money! Old charm with comfort!
Pros:

Old charm and internal courtyard, overall friendliness. While road outside is busy, once you are in it is quite, I love slow morning and coffee at courtyard. Breakfast rotates during the week, and I like that it's not that busy!

Cons:

A bit a noise road outside (it is not fixable in location sense) but great that hotel has a good windows which are block all these noise.

The Old Mill Inn is a beautiful place to stay but has a frw drawbacks.
Pros:

Proximity. Pure room was nice.

Cons:

Air conditioner difficult to control and loud. Party leaving after an event were very loud outside our room and woke me up at 10:30. We mentioned we had our reception there years back and they didn’t even acknowledge the statement. Guess they have too many weddings there for it to be exceptional to them.

Perfect location and very comfortable accommodations.
Pros:

This is such a lovely old inn. The location is convenient to the towns of Basking Ridge and Bernardsville, and not far from Morristown. We stay here quite often when visiting the area as the bedrooms are comfortable and very clean. The breakfast has always been complementary for us and provides a hot option, pastries, fresh fruit, and new coffee set up that dispenses several types of choices, including a flat white, which I just happened to love!

Cons:

I can’t think of anything that I did not like about our stay.

Beautiful hotel; terrific location off 287.
Pros:

Great location. Very close to Sloan Kettering medical facility easy on easy off 287. A little high in price, but World Cup is going on so maybe that’s why. It’s absolutely beautiful inside like an old time grand hotel… not cookie cutter like the modern facilities.

Cons:

Parking is a short walk from the front door. If you are handicapped or have a hard time walking up the hill, make sure to let your passengers off at the front door. Staff is not real welcoming or friendly. Breakfast is supposed to start at 6:30 but we were down there right at 6:30 and it wasn’t ready. Everything is heated up with sterno, comes cold. So we got cold eggs, cold oatmeal, etc. no coffee at 6:30 no hot water for tea at 6:30.
