Good, clean, but no microwave etc.
Good experience. Clean room. I suggest having a microwave and coffee machine and ice bucket in each room. Also, the fridge didn’t have a freezer section.

Loved this hotel
It’s not the Taj Mahal but combines a wonderfully quaint and warm atmosphere with a clean room. Room was a bit small but offered a beautiful bed, love seat and surprisingly a gas fireplace that was fully operational! The complimentary breakfast was great and filled us up for the long drive home. THANK YOU Brandywine River, you were awesome.

While the hotel is on busy Route 1, it was well set back from the road and very quiet. There are very good restaurants within walking distance right at the bottom of the hotel driveway.

If you are only looking for place to sleep with a continental breakfast before you depart, and a reasonable price, this is the place for you. Our room was satisfactory for what I needed. Our stay was on Thanksgiving evening and about a ten minute drive from where we were visiting that day, a time when hotels nearer to our destination were already full, so the location was not ideal but acceptable. The room had a door to the adjoining room which was locked, but sounds from that room were very audible. Fortunately our neighbors quit talking about the time we decided to sleep. The continental breakfast options were very basic- cereal, bagels, pastries, coffee, yogurt, and boiled eggs. Overall I thought what the hotel offered was reasonable for the price, but anyone expecting luxury from this site would be disappointed.

Unfortunately, walls are paper thin and if the adjoining room occupants watch TV at ear splitting volume, it can make for a long night.

I will be returning and would recommend this place. It was a cute, tucked away, kinda secluded spot. Was looking to have an enjoyable evwning with a jacuzzi tub and this place popped up. I liked the digital checkin and room access option. The room was clean, cute, and had a fireplace. There was a cafe next door having an evening so in the evening it was a little difficult finding parking, and the band was playing outside so I could hear it in my room. But overall it was an enjoyable stay with norhing reslly bad to say. There's a few nice restaurants within walking distance.
