Wonderful staff and super clean rooms. And free cookies at the desk! Thanks for the great weekend. Would be nice to have some other EV charging options. Old Tesla wall chargers are out dated and do not work well with other cars and or adapters. Nice amenities to have though.
The Hotel Bellwether is an extraordinary property with immaculate comfortable rooms and a staff which prides itself on superior service. Pricing is very reasonable.
We wholeheartedly recommend The Hotel Bellwether!
my husband and i stayed for our mini honeymoon, and the staff went above and beyond to make it an amazing stay for us. the food, rooms, and views were amazing!!
