Clean room and bathroom, decent mattress. Property being reimagined so no dining available, coffee station and communal microwave located downstairs and not mentioned by on site staff upon arrival, found while checking out the grounds. No fridge or vending machines. Room heater did not seem to work. Not ideal for my stay.

Check in was very stressful. There was no one there to assist,when could not access room. Also had 2 rooms booked which at first could not be found. It would be helpful to always have someone or a contact number that can assist a person eho is not computer or technology savy Been to this propertyseveral times however when there was someone avaiable and loved my stay. Enjoy the property overall

The host was very accommodating and the rooms were sufficient, however the conditions of the rooms and the rest of the inn shown in the pictures is not currently as listed. The indoor lounge, dining, and game area were not accessible due to renovations. The room we stayed did not appear to be in the same condition as the room listed on the booking site. There was not any obvious indication to us in the listing that not all rooms were updated and the rest of the inn was being renovated, we weren’t aware until we arrived to check in to our room. It seems like it will be lovely when the renovations are finished, but we felt like the listing should make travelers aware in advance and rates should be adjusted accordingly.

It was quite evident the Mountaineer Inn is taking a nod from Air BnB industry. Registration, payment, key codes are all text message based. The property is under extreme renovation. No room service unless you fill out a door hanger card and check the boxes. Rooms are heated with baseboard heating without controls in the room. Had to offset the "sauna" with the air conditioner. No chairs in the room. Carpeting had to be 20 years old. Literally a bed, nightstands, bureau. I didn't find the "hidden" USB port next to the nightstand until I was leaving. TV was outdated as there was no streaming capability. Ugghhhh!! Disappointed for 3 nights.

Not what it looks like in the pictures

The room was nothing like it showed in the posting. It was dark and dingy, when in the photos it looks very modern and bright. Bathroom was very small, very outdated unlike the pictures. There is no one to really help you as there’s not really a front desk. I left my phone in the room after we checked out, my phone had the code to the room on it so I didn’t remember it. Obviously it’s my fault I left it in the room but I couldn’t find a single person that works there to help open the door. It was a miracle that my boyfriend remembered the code, so we were able to get in, but still very frustrating. When in the bathroom you could hear the people next to you talking. Very uncomfortable. It felt almost like the beginning of a horror movie. Overall, it is false advertising. I don’t recommend.

Autumn visit in Vermont 2025

The internet was a bit intermittent on the first day I arrived, but it became more stable on my second day and there after. I didn't use the AC, had the window open the whole time, which was lovely; smelling the Vermont fresh air. The pillows were a bit full and hard but the bed seemed ok. It was disappointing that the restaurant was not open and that there is no kettle in the room to boil water for a cup of tea. The service was excellent though, as any issues that arose, Emma got back to me pretty toot sweet! Thank you Emma!

They are in the middle of up keep on the place so that’s good keep up the good work !!!!it’s a good place small room just needs a decent amount of maintenance…creaky floors !!! old charm for some … ehh…if u didn’t know the area well id imagine …..u rent a room and then u bring food to room to find out theres no fridge or microwave so thats kinda a bummer our room had new electronic locks. Freshly painted everywhere inside and out the beds we’re comfortable and shower/ tub was decent long shared porch and there is a big hang spot so if ur with a group it would be good nice pool in summer… In the end this place is not the best but defiantly not the worst.

Is it being flipped??

Strangest stay I have ever had. Upon arrival the building looked closed, and there were ladders and construction equipment in one of the entrances. Everything was done online. I walked into the other entrance and there was no one around. There was a sign on wall stating which floor rooms were on and that’s it. Went to room, never saw any amenities-just the brown box that was our room. No photos on walls-nice comfortable bed but ratty carpet, old furniture and bathroom was mostly redone but then ratty old scratched up mirror. It looked like it was in the middle of being flipped. Did not look like the pictures. Never saw/spoke with any employee during our visit. Grateful it was only one night.

Carpets are old. Common areas are nice. It is in a beautiful area but the rooms need an upgrade. The checkout process indicated i owed zero and still indicated i needed to pay more and qould not allow me to check oout unless i paid again, so i will have to take that up with the card company. There is nobody working at this property you can speak to. Everything is self check in and out.
