Valley Craft Ales is a bar/restaurant on the main floor with guest rooms on the second floor. The building is an old grist mill built in 1828. It is old, and it reads old. If you find that charming (we did), you’ll be fine. If you’re looking for a sparkling new Marriott, keep looking. On Friday nights they have live music in the bar. The band was great, the sound insulation was nonexistent. (Earplugs supplied in the room - no kidding.) Fortunately the music wrapped up by 11. This is not a generic hotel. It’s an adventure, but a good one. The place is clean and functional. The room decor is Bicentennial (yes, as in c. 1976), but somehow it all works. Stay there and have fun.

Dennis who works at the front desk was very accommodating, as well as the other staff members. This was my second stay here 14 years apart. The location is right in the middle of 20 sidewalk cafe/restaurants and a short walk to Old Quebec.

Clean basic rooms. But even they warn you, rooms are very loud and you can basically hear everything. But if you’re looking for a clean basic stay this is it; just remember there’s no front desk and everything is email or text.

Great location in second floor of an old mill. Above the brewery and restaurant. No live music when we stayed. We would have enjoyed that but they warn guests that it could be loud in rooms. Rooms clean. Beds were comfortable and nice view of river. Blinds and curtains provide for sufficient darkness if desired. Bathroom clean. Good hot shower. Cold water faucet was broken. Door combo works but you need to be sure to lock deadbolt when in room or from outside when leaving - it's not automatic. Chain latch gets jammed but doesn't seem necessary with deadbolt. Emergency exit map on door is mounted upside down. The food and beer at VCA was great. The lobby/lounge was a bit unwelcoming and disorganized, as you walk through an unused part of the restaurant (considering no concert) with low lighting and cases of pizza boxes waiting to be folded. All in all, a good value and great place to stay

The parking lot needs some TLC. Pitted and hard to park. The bar/restaurant was understaffed for a Friday night. Waited forever to order and then again just to get the bill.

This is except what is advertised. The location is great. The pizza is amazing. Was a little bummed that the porch and bar weren’t open but the town and people were fantastic.

No heat overnight when the outside temperature was in the 30s. We needed to get blankets from the car to stay warm. 54 degrees in the room. No hot water for showers in the morning. Website didn't say anything about live music, but they didn't mention that the locals us the facility for a jam session. 6 guitars and 3 vocalists directly under our room. No staff or manager to respond about heat and music. Emails, texts and voicemail that are supposed to be monitored 24/7 received no response. We've stayed their before and never impressed, but the location is good. After this stay, never again. The absentee owners are pathetic.

Overall, I may stay here again but it won’t necessarily be my first choice. The inn is in a small town with several restaurants (with vegan options, though none onsite at the bar restaurant downstairs). I appreciated that the inn description kept mentioning it was upstairs to the bar and band space. They provided earplugs. But it wasn’t the band I had to content with but the neighboring rooms watching football and their dog barking every time a play was made. After the game ended, everything went quiet though, and I slept through the night. I wish the window had screens so I could have left it open to hear the River rushing. The room was old but clean and comfortable. I am grateful for another guest who posted photos of the carpeted staircase you have to climb to get to the inn because I missed the one tiny sign inside pointing to the inn and wouldn’t have known where to go (the inn is unstaffed, tho they text you lock info and are responsive that way).
