    The sink is also historic but still ok

    Very unique historic property with all the decor of the Victorian age. Breakfast was very good.

    We enjoyed the historic property, its history and our engaging conversations with the proprietor. The breakfast was wonderful and very memorable. We've honestly never had a better breakfast when staying in a hotel. It's worth a few miles off of our beaten path to visit The Landmark Inn again.

    The historic nature of the whole place. It was beautiful and so well done! It was absolutely amazing everywhere you look! The beds were so comfortable, and the added antiques to the rooms were so neat!

    There was nothing we didn't like. The stairs is a bit challenging for us seniors carrying luggage.

    Period rooms filled with antiques and awesome pictures and furniture, set in an 1800s building filled with charm and elegance.

    While we understand the difficulties of renovating a historic building, the one amenity that was lacking was a lift. Our mobility challenged traveling companion could not visit the charming sitting room on the 3rd floor to visit, and it was difficult after being on the road for 2 weeks to have to carry heavy suitcases up the stairs to our suite. Also with the lack of places to eat in Oberlin, it would have been nice if the hotel had supper service every night, as your chef was excellent.

    Excellent food. Really enjoyed the use of the main dining room and the unrushed atmosphere. Gary did EVERYTHING to make us comfortable and well taken care of.

    I should have asked in advance where we should have parked and what entrance to use to check in. It would have made the process a bit easier.

    We needed to request an earlier than usual breakfast so we could get on the road at an early hour. The owner went above and beyond to ensure we had an excellent breakfast prepared 30 minutes early. Perfectly cooked eggs and sausage along with perfectly ripe cantaloupe & watermelon along with a delicious muffin. The coffee cups stayed full and the hot tea by Stash was spot on (one of my favorite brands!).

    The only one single thing, was our hot water was not working. But we worked it out anyway.

    The Aesthetic, and collation between rooms was superb. The staff was oh so wonderfully polite. The price range was amazing and very affordable. The rooms themeslves were large and well ventilated. The history and value of the building was interesting and wonderful to read about. The breakfast was well balanced.

    Well, it rained. But I guess Gary was not the one to control that. LOL

    We were greeted by Gary, the owner and he made us feel very welcome and was very friendly. We had a special needs relative (wheelchair bound) and Gary assured us that he was welcome to visit and made him feel very welcome. Gary included him to visit us for breakfast the next morning. I would recommend this place to anyone traveling who appreciates great comfort and exceptional care.

    We were between heating and a/c weather so neither was on and it got a bit stuffy.

    Lovingly restored with little expense spared when it was done in 1996. Wonderful antiques throughout. The “coach house” is a newer 2-story attached building but we did not see those rooms. Dining room downstairs in what was the main hall of the bank.

    Didn’t mind the antique furniture but bedding was shabby and quilts looked dirty. Carpet had noticeable dirt near edge of beds, Lighting was extremely bad, dimly lit room making it almost impossible to read or put makeup on. Description of the inn should have advised about the stairs. Unfortunately didn’t get to have the breakfast has we had to leave before they served. The innkeeper did however give us to muffins to take with us. Sorry I had to give this review but our stay was not what we expected
