What Guests Loved
Based on 249 reviews
Pros +
- The bed was comfortable
- Good location
- Quaint setting.
Cons -
- First off I think it should be noted that you have to climb stairs to get to room. This is challenging for people with mobility difficulties. They do have ground floor rooms available. It would have been nice to draw attention to issue.
- Disappointed after great reviews. The room was drafty and cold, the bed was lumpy, breakfast was adequate at best. It is in a good location if you want to be downtown. We couldn?t use the nice outdoor area when cushions were all wet in the morning.
- Limited parking does not provide for all guests. I paid for a room with a fireplace and a bathroom in our room. We got NEITHER! We won¿t go back.

Quaint setting.

I liked that it was very pretty and cozy. The shower was amazing.
The only thing I didn¿t like was the thin curtain in the window. The window is right infront of the shower and you can see through the window. Also you can see into the room next door. That made it a little creepy trying to take a shower.
Very friendly staff,but didn¿t bug you Super clean Well maintained Good food Convenient location (store,bank,pharmacy within walking distance
Room were a bit small but sufficient,one of the rooms has its own bath but is outside the room,but I was allowed to switch to in shower in my room. So it actually worked out fine. Nothing really negative about this place I can say.
Fantastic ambience and staff!
