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.

Shower drain did not work properly. Lost power overnight and room became very hot. We were told hotel bar was open until midnight and when we went down on Sunday night at 10pm it was closed. Other than that very great place, would stay again.

The staff is just top notch, and that really says alot in and of itself about this establishment! VERY clean place. Classy. I liked the high ceilings. It made the room feel huge. Bed was super comfy. Pillows could have been better, but we won't take away any stars for that because there were like 5 on the bed, plus extras in the closet, as well as extra blankets, which I really appreciated. At any other place I've stayed at, you get 2 or 3 flat pillows and definitely no extras! I loved the bathroom. Very quiet. Ice cold air. The girls came in and made my bed for me while I was out (extra star for that)! A little bit on the pricey side, but it was a convenient location for me, so I was willing to pay the extra. I liked that there is a covered garage. There were lots of seating areas outside. Decorated nicely. Waterfall and lights were a nice touch. Worth the $150-200/night price tag?? That's still up for debate, but I'd definitely stay again. A pool and/or spa on site might make it worth that price point for me. It's cool that you can use the YMCA's amenities, but they close super earlier, leaving limited time for use. Keep doing what you're doing, Hotel Anthracite!
