"The rooms were recently renovated, so they were clean. There is no closet so if you want to hang up clothes there are just several coat hooks on the wall next to the door. No Iron or ironing board. There is a refrigerator, microwave and TV. There is also a free breakfast, coffee, mini muffins and make your own waffles, and cold cereals. This hotel seems to be putting in the effort, but the outside appearance is nothing to write home about and there seemed to be sketchy guests or maybe longer stay tenants? Bright lights outside the room light it up as if it’s daytime. Definitely not a place I would return to. "

"Beautiful hotel and ambiance! Favorite reading spot by the lobby fireplace. Dining was delicious at The Dive restaurant. Loved the quaint room and abundant closet and drawer space. Spacious shower and spectacular rainfall shower head. Only complaint was the mattress we had gave me a backache since I’m used to a firm one, but it’s probably okay for those who prefer soft mattresses. There was also a thin layer of dust on the drawer chest but easily wiped down. Would definitely return especially in warmer season for pool and hot tub. "

"Nice view of the St. Claire River even if it was on the parking lot side to view the many freighters in passing.. Rooms clean and quiet. Added bonus was lunch at the River Crab fine restaurant in the same lot. Nice two day getaway on a belated spring week without driving too far from my home base."

"Rooms at disgusting and staff are disrespectful "

"Clean property n good breakfast"

"1. Our room had leftover food still in the fridge. We communicated that to front desk staff and she said “thanks for telling me.” It did not give me much comfort that the rest of the room was cleaned well. 2. The pool heater was broken and there was no acknowledgment of that prior to check-in. Also the ceiling was in horrible disrepair. 3. The “hottub” was the size of a whirlpool tub that could fit maybe 3 adults. 4. I overheard another guest tell the staff that the pop machine did not dispense the correct beverage. She was told “sorry that’s a third party vendor and I can’t do anything about it.” 5. We could not figure out how to get the tv chsnnels to work and when asked we were told every room has a different input so try others. To her credit, she did offer to come up and help however it was late and was not worth the time any longer. We were very dissapointed in our stay and will not be staying again. I am shocked that it has an ‘8’ rating. "

"Layout was wonderful! "

"It was pretty good stay, quiet, and nice room. The restaurant can use some more helpful staff. We were left there for too long both days."

"Everything was fantastic as was every staff member I met while there. One thing for someone to be aware of is that the establishment is on the corner of the main 2 streets in Lexington. So if you are bothered by traffic noise, I would suggest asking for a room not on the street if possible. It was not bad during my stay, but I was there during the off season. My room was directly above where the cars stop at the intersection. A lot of traffic in peak season could be an issue for some people. This is just informational and not a complaint. The establishment cannot control this. "
