10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay in Chester at this spot! The space was even larger than the pictures made it seem and everything was thoughtful and perfectly appointed. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was clean and large, and the hosts were communicative and helpful. The location couldn't have been better - a momentary walk to all the quaint shops, restaurants, and perches in Chester center (Three Fates was our favorite!). Will definitely recommend this spot to friends in the area."

"Rooms were nice, restaurant was nice and staff was great in restaurant. We picked this hotel because they have a restaurant and a bar for a drink after dinner, it was 8:30 and he was closing the bar he said it was no problem, he made the drink and gave us our bill at the same time did not talk at all and a little rude. I also read they have live music and they did not."
