Everything at the babbling brook inn was amazing my only complaint is that the door that leads to the rooms was very hard to open. It was very hard to get the key in and out of the key hole.

No employee at reception desk, had to call a phone number and was given a code to a key box with our room key in it. The room floor was tilted due to structual settling of the foundaton.

Unfortunately the stay was unexceptional. We had plumbing issues right away. The parking is very tight. Wouldn’t recommend having large vehicle for this place. The WiFi would not connect and the tv wouldn’t turn on. The rooms were ok for the most part but the bed was very hard. Wouldn’t stay there again.
