I booked Marble Mansion for a recent stay in Vermont, after reading the testimonials on their website. Big Mistake! We arrived after 3 pm per their very explicit instructions, thought it a little strange only one car in the parking lot and a pickup truck out back, both presumably the owners. Walking u to the building, we noticed a lot of dis-repair. Maybe the inside will be better. NOT. We were shown to our room, the owner's favorite, William Shakespeare, describe as their most popular. The room is quite small, the floors appear clean, but that is where the "clean" ends. Walls, windows were filthy. In the bathroom there is not a shelf or flat surface for toiletries. There is not much light in the bedroom or the bathroom. Before going to visit our daughter nearby, we thought we would clean up a little after our drive. That is when we learned there was no water. We went out to dinner , returning around 10 pm. We had a emergency call during dinner and had to leave, however our luggage was in our room so we had to return there first. Still NO other cars in lot. Guests are to sign in their preferred breakfast time, there were no other entries after ours. So, we assume, no other guests. We go up to our room, turn on the water, it came out brown. We went down to advise the innkeepers of our necessary early departure, but could not find anyone. I left a note with the key and departed. We got home around 3 am, my wife was actually quite happy that she did not have to stay at Marble Mansion!
