Prentiss House by Thatch

The room was charming. I loved the room.

The lack of staff. If I had wanted to stay in an airbnb I could have done that but I thought there would be just a little more service. If the coffee machine runs out of water, I have to replace it?

Location is great. Comfortable rooms, quiet.

No refrigerator in room.

Privacy and the ability to come and go as we pleased.

This is minor, but just the trek up the stairs.

Unique, renovated home turned into a small hotel. Great ambiance.

Lousy facilities and space utilization. Start with no refrigerator The closet has room for one, but instead has a stand up fan, a space heater and an ironing board. I was traveling with food and brought back leftover food from dinner. To prevent it from spoiling I had to put the food in the bathroom sink and keep adding ice. The fact that the ice machine is in the basement of another building made this whole thing a royal pain in the ass. To put this in perspective Comfort Inn and Motel 6 have refrigerators in each room. Second, the shower is minuscule and took over 5 minutes to heat up, still not reaching the temperature level of the sink and tub. The sink has no counter. Lastly, a 10:00am checkout time?!?! In 30 years of traveling I have never seen one that early. In summary, Prentiss House is the hotel benchmark of form over function.
