Categories

Cleanliness
8.8
Multiple guests repeatedly describe the hotel and rooms as very clean and comfortable; a few mentions of worn carpet in rooms and some restaurant chairs needing attention slightly reduce the score.
Service
8.5
Staff are frequently praised as friendly, helpful and welcoming (reception, Tom's place staff); a few service hiccups at dinner (uncoordinated timing) and occasional slow elevator service are noted.
Location
8.6
Many guests highlight the hotel's convenient location and easy access to town; one comment notes it is a bit off the beaten track by car, but overall location sentiment is positive.
Room Quality
7.7
Rooms are often described as comfortable, with good beds and nice features (fireplace), but several remarks call out dated decor, carpet issues, obstructive furniture and occasional mechanical disturbances (floor shake, elevator problems).
Amenities
7.6
Breakfast and parking are included and on-site dining is praised, but lack of elevator in parts of the hotel, a broken EV charger, missing in-room microwave for some guests and generally aging facilities lower this score.
Value for Money
7.9
Opinions are mixed: several guests report fair or good value and reasonable pricing for location/amenities, while others feel the price is high given dated facilities—resulting in a moderate score.
Food and Beverage
8.4
Breakfasts are consistently praised and on-site restaurants (Tom's place and adjacent dining) receive many positive comments including standout items like chowder; a few dinners had quality or coordination issues but overall sentiment is favorable.
Overall Experience
8.1
Most guests report a pleasant stay, would return, and highlight friendly staff and comfortable rooms; occasional negatives (dated decor, amenities issues, isolated service problems) slightly temper the overall impression.

All 4 of us agreed we'd book here again
Pros:

Our late lunch was very good in Tom's place, excellent service and all rated the chowder as fantastic.
Dinner in the adjacent restaurant was also very tasty for 3 of the 4 meals served

Cons:

Two strikes on the evening meal, the service was very friendly but seemed un coordinated. Bread was served late in the meal after asking for it, steak knives same situation. One of the meals was commented on as to the quality of the meat. Chef came out to discuss with us.
