Watch those stairs!
I booked this hotel as a surprise to my husband for our anniversary and was super excited by the online listing. Looked nice in pics and was right around the corner from the Fox. We arrived and were greeted by a very nice man who got us checked in quickly.
First impressions were it was nice, with cool architecture, clearly a renovated early 1900s house. We were directed to the top (3rd) floor then learned there is no elevator. Not a big deal for us but for an older person I could see it as an issue.
Now here’s where it gets interesting. Trip from 1st to 2nd floor, no big deal. Trip from 2nd to 3rd I was concerned because THE STAIRS MOVED! And not just a little, I felt like I was on a swaybridge. Very disconcerting.
We then got to our room to discover it was nothing like the listing online and I could tell my husband was not happy but trying to be polite because it was a gift.
We left for dinner and this time I let him go down the stairs first and watched the them literally bow under his feet as he walked down. On the way to dinner he finally divulged his uneasiness and I immediately booked a different hotel. We later went back, got our things, and left the keys without even spending the night.
Honestly they are advertising themselves as a hotel but this is a Bed and Breakfast at best. Furthermore we expected boutique, not antique. Old beds, incomplete renovation work and those stairs are a lawsuit waiting to happen
