ベンボウ ヒストリック イン, ガーバービル

A very nice stay.

We typically stay at modern chain hotels, so our stay at the Benbow Inn was out of character. I was pleasantly surprised! The Inn was beautiful! It felt like we were taking a step back in time (especially because we didn’t have a tv in our room, ha!). The room was beautiful and comfortable, the various rooms through the Inn were beautiful, and we explored a bit outside, too! Also, I cannot express how amazing the food was! I had the salmon and it was probably one of the best dishes I have ever had - prepared perfectly and everything tasted so good together. My only disappointment was that we went down at dinner time and were told that we were supposed to make a reservation to sit outside or in the dining room - no one at the front desk told us that. The next reservation they had was two hours from that time. Luckily, we were able to grab the last table in the bar area. Other than that it was an amazing stay!

Very nice place?

The antique furniture was lovely but lacked real drawers for clothes. The building & grounds were well-maintained and the staff friendly & helpful.

Rooms were musty, no screens on windows. Considering it is supposedly newly renovated as they advertise it was very disappointing to have such mustiness. Rooms were small and cramped and the bathrooms were even smaller. Bed was not comfortable. It was also not clear that there was no TV. Overall not a positive experience. I would not stay here again.
