They put our room on the fourth floor and we had to walk up three flights of stairs, carrying our luggage because there was no elevator. It was very conveniently located near the subway and many different venues.

It was the cold shower for me. I really like the vibe here but I like a hot shower 🚿 to relax my muscles, especially driving for 9 hours! Staff is stupendous decor is gaze worthy. And the breakfast is top notch with outdoor seating!

The Tabard Inn (over a hundred years old) is the definitive "shabby chic." Though scruffy-looking (but interesting wherever one's eyes rest) it's an acquired taste that some will lap up and others will wonder where a TV is. I loved its true-to-itself. Now many may not love the steep, narrow staircase that was needed to go up to my room, just barely wide enough for my piece of luggage. Indeed the various stairways and step-downs and step-ups conjured up images of Escher drawings. Yet, it has a huge following with the "hot local crowd in the know" for its evening drinks scene. Checking in, I was surprised when given two $10 chits to be used towards breakfast (or lunch.) I used both of mine and the cooking is Excellent, and plentiful. No one will feel underfed.

It’s always a personal pleasure to stay at the Tabard Inn. The art is amazing. The staff is wonderful and it’s insanely interesting and charming. No elevators but that’s part of the history and charm.

Tabard Inn is in a great location! I'm glad we had a chance to stay there. I recommend it and would stay there again. The outside dining area is very quaint and relaxing. Bed was comfortable. My two comments are around the bathroom/shower: 1) it literally took 5 mins (we timed it) for the water in the shower to become warm/hot. We were on a top floor so maybe that had something to do with it? 2) the shower itself is not enclosed so water ends up all over the floor. We didn't want to slip on the floor post shower so we sopped up the water with towels.
