Good one night stay
Reasonable price, comfortable bed and walkable to downtown. It’s right by the road but we didn’t hear much traffic so we slept good. Staff were friendly and helpful.

AMAZING Hotel, 5 Stars!
I absolutley LOVED this hotel and wish we would have been able to stay here longer. The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly and helpful, the rooms were adorable, clean, quiet, safe, comfortable and made us not want to leave. I would 1,000% come back here! 5 stars!

Great location. Parking could be a little tight. A little bit noisy, hearing snoring, voices, and footsteps from other rooms. Very friendly and attentive staff.
William, 4-night trip

The Inn was nice. The staff provided kind hospitality, accommodated a very late check in and housekeeping worked with our schedules. The area is in walking distance of eateries and small shops.

Nice hotel
Daniel, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Beds were great!
The beds and pillows were quite comfortable. Great shower pressure and toiletries. Frustrating that only three towels were provided for four guests and due to late check-in, wasn’t able to resolve. Paper thin walls and extremely loud neighbors that came into their room late (around 2am) and proceeded to blast the tv through the night. Fridge makes loud noises all night. Not an ideal place to stay if you’re a light sleeper.
