Very great place to stay. Rooms are great. The bathrooms are huge with great water pressure and all the hot water you want. Best coffee in the world. You'll love the beds. The owners and people we met were so nice.
The hosts are gracious and accommodating. The hotel is clean and interesting.
Unfortunately there is no air conditioning. It was 80 degrees the night I was there and very hot in the room even with windows open. The building is situated approximately 50 feet from the railroad tracks. At least four trains came through during the night with whistles blowing. Due to the hot room and train noise, I did not get any sleep.
Unlike other hotels, this one does not give refunds without 72 hour notice. I left after the first night but had prepaid for a second night and could not get a refund.
Reopened under new management. Very personable, pleasant and couldn't be more accommodating. Ideal place for an event.
My family recently had a family reunion at the hotel (which is under new management). The Lemons, who have the motel now, made our reunion a huge success! They couldn't do enough for us. Mr. Lemon even crawled on top of a t-a-l-l stepladder to take group pictures. He also took pictures for everyone using our phones to do so. Mrs. Lemon was just as accommodating making sure everyone was happy and comfy and had everything they needed.
The place was shiny and spotless. They've revamped the lobby into an area where you can get lunch or dinner. They also serve adult beverages. The food was very good. The prices are fair enough.
The rooms have fresh paint and floors. Our room had a huge bathroom with a shower that had plenty of hot water and pressure. The bed was really comfy - the mattress being the kind that doesn't transfer movement from one side to the other. The decor is tastefully rustic - painted brick outer walls, old doors from the hotel stained and finished repurpoused as headboards... Just absolutely charming! There's air conditioning in every room too.
All in all I couldn't have been more satisfied with any other venue for our family reunion than I was with the Bowbells Hotel. They deffinately added to the success of the weekend. I'd stay there anytime.
Great ambiance, super clean, excellent hosts, comfortable beds, fairly priced, plenty of parking.... I can't think of one bad thing to say about this place!
The best!
What a great renovation these guys have done! We stayed in the Bowbells Suite - a large room with a king-sized bed. It was very nicely decorated and the bed was super comfortable. We'll be back for sure!
