“This hotel's proximity to state parks and the charming Keene downtown is a real asset. While some rooms are updated and comfortable, I noted reports of ongoing renovations, with potential pool and gym closures which is something to consider before booking. For those prioritizing location and outdoor access, and not minding possible construction, this could be a reasonable choice.”
