First let me say the property is gorgeous and staff extremely attentive but there are some details being overlooked overall. I would not recommend the Turret room for your stay. It is located directly above the kitchens so 1. The smell is overwhelming at all times from either active cooking or lingering odors. 2. The two story accommodations are dated and extremely musty smelling due to what I believe is old carpet. Furniture in the turret room was not kept well. We arrived to crumbs on the couch, a cracked and peeling coffee table and outlets throughout so in need of repair that nothing would stay plugged in. Even the first floor of this Inn smelled very old, musty and unclean. We arrived late Thursday evening. Our meal at the Inn’s restaurant was nearly perfect and quite memorable. Sadly the strawberries on my cheesecake dessert were rancid. After my eggs Benedict breakfast on our first morning, within 1 hour I became severely ill. My entire day was spent in and out of bathrooms. This obviously put a major damper on our spa treatments, time in the pool, etc. I wasn’t even able to leave our room for dinner. Towards the end of the evening it became so bad my husband decided to report my illness so the staff could check the freshness of their inventory. Nothing was done. I can’t help but think that weekday food inventory is being stretched a bit too long towards the weekend and perhaps compromising freshness therefore causing my illness. Overall I would be leery of staying on property
on weekdays in the Turret room.
