The Dewey by The Lenox Collection

I would stay here again...

Liked: Bed was firm and comfortable. Very quiet. Beautiful building and grounds. Coffee, tea, snacks available in kitchen.
Disliked: Room was hot when I arrived. I had to turn on all 3 AC units. Did not like that the bathroom was across the hall. I missed that in the room description (room 8 - 3rd floor). Most of the rooms do have a bathroom inside the main room. No food for breakfast during the week however there is a kitchen with coffee and bagged snacks. If you want breakfast on a week day you have to walk across town to the sister hotel. There was NO mirror in the room. Hated having to cross the hall everytime I needed it. It would have been nice to have a bathrobe provided in rooms with an exterior bathroom.

Passable

Liked: Location, bed was comfortable.
Disliked: No staff, breakfast was below average continental. Shower was terrible for Room 2.

Very good

This brief getaway has been relaxing and most enjoyable.

Liked: Everything, especially the spacious room and downstairs living area with games and cozy reading nooks.

Just what you would imagine a New England Inn would offer.

Liked: There was plenty of space. Our rooms were in an adjacent building, but the main building had several rooms that were decorated for the holidays. We took full advantage of the common space and, to be honest, were the only ones we saw using it most of the time. The rooms were comfortable. They had fireplaces/woodstoves but they did not seem to be operable. Check in and breakfast was in a nearby sister location, which was not too inconvenient, but the weather was mild. There was plenty of coffee, etc. on our property. We happily opened Christmas presents by the inn's tree, which was nice. Breakfast was "continental" but nicely presented.
Disliked: We totally understand the difficulty and cost of running a business like this, but the absence of staff was at times difficult and unsettling. Simple things like understanding how the heating systems worked, how to access the TV, how to work the fireplace, etc. was difficult to discover without available staff. I eventually got a staff member on the phone, but a text I sent (their stated preferred method of communication) was never answered.
