An Inn That’s Seen Better Days :(
I hate to say this (really) because the staff were so nice and the location in the center of Afton is perfect (if you like quiet and idyllic). But the Afton House Inn is old and is showing the wear and tear. I certainly don’t need the latest and greatest but this Inn has definitely seen better days. Case in point is the massive jacuzzi tub that took up a significant portion of our room. It felt so 1980s when I’m sure the Inn was in its romantic heyday. That said, despite its age, the staff were so truly kind and helpful.

Disappointing experience
Our room was taken by someone else when we got there. We were given another room which was an "upgrade" but it faced the street, did not have a balcony or patio. The hot tub had missing and broken parts. It was a terrible experience. Once we found the 1 person who works her butt off there, she got us into a better room, actually it was our favorite room. She goes above and beyond. She even gave us some truffles. She also gave us 10% off Dinner, but then the hotel closed everything dude to weather (which didnt get bad until much later). We were told we were the only guests. We didn't get to use our discount, we didnt get to relax at all with all the changes. I get rooms like this when I am suffering from Burnout and need to relax and just get away. I was at a conference the week before and really just needed to relax. It was also my Huband's birthday present and it was ruined. Except for our wonderful lady! She is amazing or I would have given all 1 star for this trip, which was quite the opposite review we gave last time. If there are only 2 people in the hotel and you offer add ons, they should still be available to the 2 guests. Im not sure we will ever come back, cause if it snows it closes, its like you have to look forward in the weather to know if they will randomly close everything. This was a waste of 600.00 dollars and that's a shame, we were going to hold events here. I'm the VP for a company, and we wanted to do retreats here and such.

Cute small town inn
Charming, historic inn that could use some updating. The staff was friendly and the complimentary breakfast was good. We got one of the bigger rooms and the jetted tub was nice. Sometimes there’s a curfew so be aware of that. However, my big downside is the older crowd that the inn restaurant draws. I work with people and I’m a friendly people person in general. It was clear that my presence as a younger queer person made them uncomfortable- they constantly gawked at me whenever I left my room, they were disrespectful, and even when I politely held the door for them they ignored me. The inn itself and staff were lovely - it’s a shame that their customers are not.

Best place to stay in Afton, Minnesota
I love the historic aspect of it, and Peggy was amazing with her fine dining experience and told us the history of the Afton historical in. Everyone was so happy and wonderful, and the rooms were very clean. They really know how to make cocktails in the bar and they have a wide variety of wines at swirl. The food was amazing not that much attention to the morning breakfast we had to get our own stuff like coffee cups and silverware and dishes. They weren’t so great at replenishing breakfast but that’s OK. The rest of the state made it more than worthwhile and the views are beautiful of the marina and Saint Croix river and your Jean at the front desk is amazing at up selling, so that’s awesome, she gave us so many ideas of things to do in the area as we came down for the strawberry festival, but weren’t as many strawberry things as I anticipated with the vendors should be more strawberry things. It is a great place to go and relax and unwind, and be together .

Not economical or as safe as we prefer.
This hotel is good for people who don't have health isssues. My husband is handicapped and really shouldn't be doing stairs. When we asked to be moved downstairs we were told there would be another $96 charge to do that. The watwr smelled and tasted like well water and the purified water cost $3 each. It was just not economical for us.
