It is a unique piece of history, a snapshot in time. Ruby was great at check in, warm and friendly. I really appreciated the details and invite to the lounge, I was just too travel weary to go.
I really enjoyed staying here. The owners were stupendously warm, kind, and helpful when my car broke down and even had a sense of humor about it.
If I had to stay in Lancaster again, they would be my first choice!

No hair dryer. I went and purchased one, but there was no electrical outlet in the bathroom other than one affixed to an old light which didn't have clearance for the GFI on the hairdryer. There was no other mirror in the room other than in the bathroom, so drying my hair was out of the question.
It was a clean room ,comfortable and the safe was very friendly. I definitely will be back. It would be nice if it was dog friendly. A lot of people travel with there fur babies.
Great place to stay before heading to Mt Washington!

Rare 1950's motel in great location
Old fashioned motel being lovingly renovated. Rooms a little shabby but clean. Currently having major issues with staffing but staff pleasant, friendly and helpful.
Located ideally for facilities in Lancaster.
Nice cocktail bar onsite
The receptionist tells us upon arrival that maybe the one who makes the breakfast will be there the next day. Well guess what? The door to the entrance was locked and there was no one there. No breakfast. The breakfast was included in the price and that's one of the reasons I booked. It's not worth $124. Also, I forgot my cell charger in the room and no one wrote to tell me that they found my charger in the room. So no more charger. Bad experience.
