What a wonderful place to stay as we enjoyed our daughter's graduation at Umass. They go and above and beyond to make it special. We stayed in a suite so we had plenty of space. They didn't miss any details. The breakfast was so special and tasty. I would highly recommend.

The historic charm, combined with the updated bathrooms, made this property unique. Homemade baked goods and freshly made to order breakfast makes this a much better option than any area hotel.
