The staff was courteous and professional. This made all the difference. The inn is quaint as it is an older structure. Housekeeping services keep each room in superb condition.

Helpful employees, lots of stairs
Room was very small, and the shower was awkward & strange. The bedside alarm clock went off 4 times during the night! Bed was hard, but the pillows were great. The man who carried in our luggage also washed our car windshield and brought us coffee. It is an interesting place.
