We liked the location but were very unhappy that neither the Bar nor the Dining Room were open. The presence of those 2 items was the main reason I booked us there.

Check in was quick. Walking distance to restaurants (I wouldn't recommend The Golden Pond) Its an old building so certain things are inevitable like squeaky floors. Hope there was no one below us. The king room was large but weirdly laid out. Desk and fridge/microwave at the end of the bed where the TV normally would be. TV was on the side wall making for a sore neck watching from the bed....The sofa was all the way on the other side of the room, nowhere besr the TV. Bathroom was kind of outdated, dead fly on the floor, used washcloth hanging over the shower curtain rod. The handle for turning water on and off in the shower was quite loose but the pressure was fine. It was the cheapest place but not sure if we'd stay there again.

Property was beautiful. If you are looking to sit outside to read a book and socialize it’s a wonderful spot. Kind of like taking a step back in time. Room was okay. AC was rather noisy, toilet would continue to run if you didn’t reset handle. Cell service in area is weak and internet wasn’t great. TV had to buffer so much it wasn’t usable.

Pros were clean room, very comfy bed, shower had awesome water pressure, quick and easy check in, ample parking, and heat pump in room. Cons were outdated building but that’s part of the charm really, no hairdryer in room, and lots of steps to 2nd floor. Would recommend though as the price was reasonable!

We were only there for a quick 1 night stay. We got there in the dark and left early the next day. It was sufficient for that.The owner of the house was very nice and friendly but we really only saw him quickly when we checked in.

The location was stunning. The room was simple but comfortable, clean, & cozy. There was a good restaurant, a cafe, & a bookshop in the building. A stroll over the iron bridge led to the charming town of Liverpool’s shops & cafes. The hotel’s lawn was overlooking the water was a great place to sit and have coffee or take-out from the Inn’s cafe.

Availability of the staff was difficult, on arrival we waited quite long before someone came, at first we were okay with that, people are busy with other hotel tasks. A little later I went down with a question and could hear the staff behind reception, I rang the desk bell (which was lounge) waited and still no one then I called out Hello and nothing. The next morning it says office opens at 10 at 10:45 door closed and no one around, there was actually a backup of two people waiting to check in and asked where the office was and we to.d them that is it.
