The room was fine. It had been remodeled since we last stayed there. It was a bit noisy--garbage collection early in the morning and next unit over was noisy. The breakfast was adequate.

Great location for people who love to walk around town! Plenty of dining options nearby. We found the bed to be very comfortable and the sheets were super soft. Although the food was just a basket of prepackaged items with some milk for the cereal and apples, it was appreciated and held us over until we could get ready for the day and head out. The people we met who run the Inn are kind and concerned that everything go well. We enjoyed our stay there.

Parking lot was small and we brought a big f250 so we had to park in the street. Parking did seem safe. Breakfast was plenty but just cereal, pastries and fruit. I thought it was going to be a hot meal

We had an okay experience. I just didn’t like how there’s no AC and it’s super hot and uncomfortable to sleep, we had to open our blinds so cold air from outside would come in. But good for an overnight stay.
