It was outdated, tub/shower mouldy, bathroom counters too low, not standard. I felt like I was in a fire hazard waiting to happen. Kitchen was apparently under renovations, but it would have been nice to have hot coffee and pastries in the foyer area in the morning. Just because whatever they supply in room was pretty awful.

The property is an interesting old mansion with lots of character in the layout . Our only complaint was the games room, which needs some maintenance; light bulb out over pool table, the bridge cue is missing and there is only one worn out piece of chalk. The shuffleboard is also worn out.

Kitchen was under renovations, so no meals involved. Walked the building, was like being in an old century home. Beautiful grounds. We coukd use the fireplace in our room, which was added bonus. Will return.
