“Our less than pleasant experience”
Gary Levy (2 reviews)
How do I begin. When we arrived we found a utility crew in front working on a transformer that had blown out early morning. We checked in and thay gave us a street side room. Come to find out they would be working thru the night into the next day. They never offered to move us to the back side where it would have been quieter. Needless to say we didn't get much sleep. When we checked out they never apologized for the inconvience or even asked how our stay was. Next was the TV. There is none. You have to go to a hot barn and watch TV upstairs becuase the downstairs TV is missing the remote. The advertise as a Luxury Inn. They state they have a cell tower in the chimney. Good if you have ATT but if you have Verizon they tell you you have to back down the road to the mountain to get service. Our children had no way to contact us directly in emergency.
