The only spoiler for a perfect score was that I was not advised in advance of arrival that the kitchen did not operate on Mondays and Tuesdays. I was a late arrival and this was not welcome news. Fortunately, the desk supervisor pointed me across the street to a delightful Mexican restaurant and saved the day

I stayed in room 403 which overlooked the main street in town. The room was very spacious and clean. The room had ceilings taller than 8', a modern decor, microwave and coffee maker. The hotel dining room staff were very accommodating and friendly! I felt safe walking around and learning about the town. This is a small quiet town with limited shopping and dining. I had breakfast one day at Mcdonnell's, just down the block, and it was delicious - highly recommend it. Also, you can take a car ride on business Route 6 East and enjoy the countryside vistas. The town of Honesdale is just a short drive away and has a nice walkable downtown with a variety of shops and eateries. The only disappointment was that the TV did not function properly. I was hoping to watch a movie after dinner from the free streaming app services already downloaded but they were not working. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Antracite and would stay here again.

Needed to use Internet for work and it kept going in and out. The TV did the same. Shower had missing caulk and was moldy. Bright light outside the window and the curtains did not keep it from illuminating the room at night.
