I had fun with my friends when we went to this hotel. It was pretty crazy the people who worked there gave us the key to Lilly's room and when I and my buddy walked into the room the first time we heard stuff moving downstairs and when we went down to look there was nobody down there. The second time we went in there we both got a feeling we had to leave in our head telling us both to leave so we ran out of the room at the same time not knowing what happened.

It was at 2:30pm when we stopped by for lunch, we noticed the door to the entry of the restaurant was locked. As we were about to leave, a lady with a long formal dress unlocked he door and informed us it was closed due to Covid hours. Several days later, I started reading about this haunted hotel and the ghosts that still exist, This then dawned on me the lady that appeared by the entry door may have been Lily. The times we have dined here, we yet have never again seen this lady with a formal long dress working in this restaurant. Regardless the spooky experience we may have encountered, the food is great! with a very friendly atmosphere and we still come back to dine here!

So I was baby sitting a little girl and while she was napping I was cleaning the kitchen. The cleaning spray can slid all the way across the counter Everytime I set it down. Also the child that I was babysitting had a couple of big rag dolls that Everytime I would put them somewhere, they would move to a different location. Also, I went to the laundry room to do dinner laundry and I kept hearing laughing. Definitely a thrilling experience.

Enjoyed the visit stayed in a haunted room. Awesome. I was taking a shower n the shower curtain kept movi g to the side. I also heard antique piano in dinning area play at 2a.m. it was awesome. The dinning area was completely locked. The bar area was great. I felt touched n heard conversations i saw Lily on the stairs n a little boy. He was sitting on steps n i almost fell. I enjoyed the stay. I cant wIt to go back. I want to thank the staff n owner for a great time n a great continental breakfast. The meals were fantastic. Thank you all.
