This is a fantastic place to stay, beating out the other 5 hotels we stayed in during this trip. The transformation from run-down mill slum to this peaceful, comfy inn is remarkable. (I delivered newspapers on this street in my youth, and it was a depressing, horrible place.) The location is fantastic, with easy walks for exercise or to see the town, and parking is no problem. The morning breakfast offerings have a little something for everyone. The exercise room is one of the best we've used at a hotel, especially for one of this size. The lobby area has books, puzzles, comfy seating, and the historic photos and decor were upscale. Clare, the inn cat, visited us and made it feel very homey.
