The Lowell Inn, not so nice
We had a toilet disaster and a chaotic response by management. The owner did refund our costs but we had to find an alternative hotel on a very busy weekend. The manager on duty was unpleasant to deal with, offering me a plunger!! We also were on the top floor with no elevator.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here! Very quiet and clean. Loved the historic features but nicely updated. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay! Would be nice to have a refrigerator for beverages or leftover food. We brought a small cooler just to keep our drinks cold. Very nice hotel and we would stay again! Thanks Lowell!

Extremely comfortable and quiet, dated TV
Very comfortable, very quiet, bonus vacay night for partner and I. Our only complaint was that the TV was very small and dated. We had no problem watching the football game, but would have enjoyed a newer TV model.

The room was simple but very clean and the shower in the bathroom was fabulous! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We also loved the little balcony on our room to sit and drink our morning coffee which was complimentary and very good. We ate breakfast in the restaurant and the food was homemade and delicious. Location was ideal and everything we needed was in walking distance. We hope to go back again someday!

There is no elevator. The room smelled of mold, thus the air conditioner simply spread mold spores around. The bathroom was almost as small as an airplane restroom. The sink was so narrow you literally could not wash your hands without getting water all over the floor. The accommodations were very disappointing. We will not return.
