I wish we would have had a coffee pot in our room. I will definitely return to the Atwater, but I’ll bring my own coffee.

Small rooms, but very clean. Off the Main Street but still close to everything. Gifted us with champagne for our anniversary!

The property had its pros and cons. Pros it’s close to everything since Avalon is fairly small that’s a nice bonus. There is a $20 credit offered every day from the time you check in at 4 PM until Midnight. We missed the first one because we had already purchased our food before being aware of the credit. Cons there is loud noise if you are sleeping on the street side of the building. We woke up to noise at 6 AM and asked the front desk attendant about this there was no resolution and the front desk attendant was not polite and seemed bothered by the call. Be warned you may not get great sleep if you are on the street side.

I don't know if it was because we booked through Expedia but we were placed in a room that had a view of the roof from all windows, was right by the stairs and elevator and whatever was on floor above us was very loud until after midnight and started again around 5:30am. The Room we were assigned was very nice inside but difficult to sleep and room felt very inferior with view and location compared to the beautiful premises

Location great. Clean. Being an older hotel, only had one elevator and the farthest rooms were quite the walk. But we all need exercise. No coffee pots in rooms nor a chair in our room. Very small rooms but beautifully done. No restaurant but a small walk-up with great coffee and scones. All in all, we loved our stay.
