Gaston Vacation Packages

This hotel felt like a lot of pretension wrapped around a pretty mediocre stay. The bar had one major bright spot: an excellent mixologist and a genuinely good single malt selection. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience didn’t live up to that. The room was tiny, the bed was badly bowed and felt broken, and the wall-mounted AC had such a weak fan that it barely seemed capable of cooling the room. They did have a cool Tivoli Audio Model Three BT clock radio, which was probably the nicest thing in the room. Then came the nickel-and-diming. Two bottles of Evian sat on the desk at $7 each. Overnight parking was $40 through the hotel for the exact same public garage where I could have paid the city around $10. The food was overpriced for the portion sizes, and although the bar serves food, getting an order in took forever. We finally gave up and walked to Shake Shack instead. The bar atmosphere was also painfully pretentious, with plenty of older women very obviously prowling for company. Overall, this place charges luxury prices without delivering a luxury stay. One talented bartender and a good whisky shelf weren’t enough to make up for the uncomfortable room, weak AC, ridiculous markups, and slow service. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Such a great stay, warm and welcoming host. I only had one issue and the host took care of it immediately. The breakfast was amazing and the coffee was hot which was huge for me. My first B&B stay but definitely not my last.

Fun old hotel clean and great location
