The hotel and the room exceeded our expectations. Although pricey for the area, the top floor room (16) with a balcony was lovely, the king bed very comfortable and the room quiet (I am noise sensitive). The bottle of wine and unusual trail mix was a nice touch. The bathroom is very small, but nicely appointed. The grounds are lovely. The hotel managers were professional and helpful. My one big disappointment was the meal at the adjoining restaurant - Due West. I chose to ignore many poor reviews as the manager said the food was quite good. It is not! It was our anniversary and truthfully it was one of the worst meals we’ve ever had… overcooked dry chicken, over salted brussel sprouts swimming in a broth, dry blackened fish sandwich with nothing like cole slaw on, and an over baked dry apple tart (the ice cream was great). I really hope that the hotel/restaurant hires a new chef/director as they have a wonderful opportunity for guests to enjoy the very nice hotel and walk a few steps to a beautiful restaurant with lovely decor and outdoor dining area in addition to good food.
