Unique property! Cute room and great size! No front desk so you’ll have codes to let yourself in. Restaurant below was a cute little place for a bite to eat. No elevator so be ready to carry luggage up a steep stairway.

Check in process failed epically. Fortunately, a resident in an adjacent building was able to contact the owner and get access for us. We are so thankful that he approached us to help. No check-in email with access code was sent nor did the owner try contacting us after we made repeated attempts to contact for entry. Very disappointing with the process. Rooms are located over the cafe and all cafe noises vibrate through the warehouse rooms and is exceptionally loud when sleeping at 6am!

Beautiful room in a refurbished mill. The room had the right mix of history and modern. The cafe downstairs served a great breakfast and the waitstaff was great.

The Mill is a very nice place to stay as the rooms are well kept and very spacious. It is a very good location for us. The only drawback is you have to go up several flight of stairs to get to the rooms and is a little hard for older people taking up their suitcases. Restaurant below has wonderful food.

Check in was person less. Was suppose to be given codes the day before. Then sent a second email saying it would be an hour before check in. Nothing. Had to hunt down phone numbers. One phone number referred to a second. Got a cool, dispassionate lady who made no apologies. Said she’d send a text to my phone and hung up!! Finally got in!! No overhead light in the bedroom and no light in the small hallway that housed the frig and microwave.
Three out of the four window shades were broken. Two could not be raised and one didn’t have a shade. The windows were at least 6 feet high (former factory) and four feet wide so we woke at light of day, 6 am.
The sheets had been washed with some scented chemical and my husband has sensitive skin and was irritated by them. The scent was also offensive.
The bar stools were metal and very uncomfortable for older folks such as ourselves.
Wouldn’t return here.

The setting in a refurbished factory was very interesting. The corner room was very comfortable but could definitely use a second chair in it.

Room was cute. That is where the charm ended. The property provided no communication through out the experience. No confirmation of booking, no 24 hour prior to check-in, no return response to inquiry. When called one month prior to checking to make sure we were not being scammed, manager was rude. 1 hour prior to arrival still no communication. Another call in to make sure a room was secured, another rude interaction. An auto responder arrived at the moment of check-in giving a code. Perhaps a suggestion to program in at least some level of confirmation for peace of mind would be my recommendation. THEN once roomwas acquired, the next morning was very disruptive with a door to the cafe below being opened and slamming shut every few minutes as patrons came in for breakfast. A door closing device would gave easily prevented the continuous slamming.. I am usually pretty forgiving when traveling. My recommendation for this place however? Keep going down the road and give your dollars to a group that might care about your experience.

I would have likely given this property a five star rating across the board if not having been for two erroneous charges related to my stay. I paid in full via Expedia, but on my first day of check in, was billed for two erroneous charges by the Inn. I contacted the property staff that was cited on these communications, and that person stated that, despite the items being billed by The Mill Inn directly, and communicated to me via the Expedia communication portal with noting the innkeeper's name and contact phone number, the charges must have been done by someone unrelated to the property. I have since lodged a complaint with Expedia, and their attempts to contact The Mill Inn have not been returned. My credit card company confirms that the charges were indeed made by The Mill Inn, and they are reversing the charges. Very shady dealings indeed, so I would avoid this property altogether unless you want to risk the same issues. Otherwise, I would have praised the property.

When we arrived is was cold in the room, no heat. My husband put it on but when we returned from dinner, no heat. We texted the assistance number, no reply. Called the number for assistance, answering machine. The freezer in the frig was full of ice and frost. The gave one small bottle of combo shampoo/conditioner for two days and two people. The second day the two split units stopped working and flashed all night long. The small wall fan gave some heat in the room at least. This is a loft room with high ceilings and any heat was going up. Maybe they should put ceiling fans in or heaters that work. I think we deserve some kind of refund for this mess.

What a charming place! After spending 2 consecutive nights in 2 different motel rooms (no hotels were available in the towns I was in) It was so refreshing to stay at The Mill Inn! It has a down home atmosphere, but with a luxurious feel. I felt like I was in a high-end hotel, but without the high-end cost! I wanted to experience the cafe downstairs, but I didn't have enough time. The town is small enough to feel like you're getting away from it all, but big enough to offer some of the amenities. It was awesome to look outside my window and see a perfectly quiet street at night that was otherwise bustling during the day. I will definitely be bringing my husband next time for an extended stay. Thanks, you guys! It was wonderful!

The room aesthetics were very simple and pleasing to the eye. The room is quite large within array of seating accommodations. Unfortunately, the California King bed was very uncomfortable I would strongly suggest more noise insulation. I could hear every word the next door, guess we’re saying saying late into the night and early the next morning. Also, some thing you may want to address the walk-in shower in room five does not drain properly. It leaked onto the bathroom floor and out through onto the carpet in the coffee area of the room. I know we aimed the shower nozzle in the right direction. Overall, the self check in concept works.

Never got into my room. Electronic pad would not accept the code given me by Mill Inn. Very frustrating. Left several messages regarding my problem. No call back or apology.

After a mix up on the room, the staff tried very hard to remedy the situation. We appreciated their efforts and second night was great.
