Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers cozy and well-appointed rooms but suffers from noise disturbances near fire exits resembling a train station atmosphere. The service is varied, with instances of hospitality and distractions during events. Its location, though picturesque, is challenging with muddy terrain and network connectivity issues. Dining options are decent, yet with deficiencies in quality and speed. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel provides a peaceful retreat amidst beautiful natural surroundings at a substantial cost.
The Stanton house offers a mix of positives and negatives; the rooms could use some updating and enhancements, although they were spacious and clean. The service was a bit mixed but redeemed by some friendly staff and complimentary gestures. The location, while clean and comfortable, lacked a bit of charm. The dining experience had its letdowns but also provided good value. The facilities were sufficient but not outstanding.
