"Checked in and received a room with 2 beds and not king as reserved. They would have changed us but we were already in room so stayed. Rooms do not have coffee makers so had to go to front for coffee. Beds comfy along with pillows and very clean. Breakfast had all the normal items. Convenient location"

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel, well kept and very convenient. Just a touch from the main part of the downtown area but it's all growing together. Lady working the front desk dropped 6 F bombs in a minute and a half in front of my kid, another kids, my wife and I at 930 in the morning about being in the pool before opening time at 10. In the room it says 9 and by the pool it says 9. She wasn't getting after us but said she didn't give an eff that her boss didn't want us in the pool before 10. 6 times. Very strange. Other that that it was a good place to stay for a good price."

The Read House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The room exceeded expectations. It was clean, beautiful view of downtown. I also appreciated the modern amenities such as usb charger ports for my electronics, the refrigerator and coffee bar setup in the room. The history of the hotel with the perfect location downtown makes it a perfect choice. Most activities we wanted to do were within walking distance. Best of all was the staff. Everyone from the car valet, front door man and the front desk were all friendly, helpful and treated my wife and me as VIPs. That is why we will return to stay the next time we are back in town at this hotel."
