It was a pleasant stay. We had to be moved to a different room because of a plumbing issue in the room above us, but they took care of it efficiently. The new room was a tad larger and they didn't charge for that. The Anthracite Hotel is our go-to place when we visit family in the area.

Pillows are the worst
Everything was great. But the pillows. The pillows were stiff and HUGE! Absolutely horrible night sleep and woke with a stiff neck.
