Great little gem!
We enjoyed just about everything here. Great breakfast, unique, clean and comfortable. Great wifi(Starlink). The only thing that could make it perfect is darker or blackout curtains.

Wonderful Small Town Accommodations
I've stayed here multiple times and love it. Great service and hospitality, yummy breakfast, a home away from home, comfy, amazing location, and the building itself is a historic treasure. Definitely will stay again!

Nice property and very clean. However, the queen mattress needs to be replaced. It is very soft and has a huge ident in the middle. Worse night of sleep for my wife and I in years.
