I would have appreciated a better coffee bar area/variety, since no complimentary breakfast. Other than that everything else was great. The bed was very comfortable!

Great place, perfect location. Cool old building. Had an older room but all good. No room cleaning or towels when requested. But we figured it out. Service not great. Will go back though.

Super loud all night long (cars, people) and other rooms jet tubs going off at 2 AM kept us up for a while. Staff were super nice! Our room was cute but no fridge or microwave for that price. The best thing about the hotel was the location, close to everything!

Neat historic building in a great location for exploring Stillwater on foot. Additional cost for parking seemed high but was conveniently located across the street (very little overnight on street parking in the town).

WE STAYED FOR OUR 18TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. AT 9:30 PM A STORM CAME IN AND TOOK OUT ALL POWER TO STILLWATER. THE INN HAS NO BACKUP GENERATOR SO, FROM THAT POINT ON WE WERE IN DARK, NO AIR-CONDITIONING. THE COST OF ROOM AND PRIVATE PARKING WAS CLOSE TO 250 DOLLARS. WE ASKED FOR A PARTIAL REFUND AS WE CHECKED OUT AT 7:30 AM. WE COULDN'T SLEEP ALL NIGHT AND POWER STILL WASN'T ON! THE MANAGER HASN'T EVEN RESPONDED TO MY CONCERNS AND REQUESTS FOR PART OF THE CHARGES TO BE REFUNDED. VERY DISSATISFIED

Excellent hotel on the St Croix River
This is a really comfortable historic hotel that has been updated. Very large rooms, some with views of the river. A good Irish pub in the building serves meals, and the shops and restaurants of Stillwater are all within a couple of blocks. Very relaxing stay.
