Ray

Travelled with partner
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was no staff when we arrived so we had to go to a sister property a few blocks away to check in. There is no maid service unless you file a special request. It seems like an abandoned business with no one in charge or managing it. The bed was extremely uncomfortable with no support. My back hurt from sleeping in it. The furniture is old, broken down and dingy. We highly regret choosing the Hill House Inn.

Very Decent Place to Stay
Easy check-in/check-out. Staff was friendly, though we did get some incorrect info about what restaurants were open. Room has a bit of a musty/old smell, but otherwise clean. The blankets are a bit thin (but there were extras available), and the towels a bit scratchy. Great location, and lovely view of sunset colors!
