Lamie's Inn and The Old Salt Restaurant

Lamie's Inn and The Old Salt Restaurant

8/10 Good
"The end was a lovely place to stay, and the restaurant was excellent. However, we did experience some issues with the heat in our room being inconsistent. I would also caution against people with walking disabilities staying there since there seemed to be no elevator, and the bathroom seemed pretty small."

8/10 Good
"The overall price of the hotel was good for someone trying to stay within a budget. The hotel staff were accommodating and nice! The room we stayed in was not terrible, but the curtains did have a few holes and the sheets could have been a bit cleaner. The breakfast was great and the staff preparing the breakfast made sure everything was clean, as well as fully stocked. Plenty of parking if you're renting a car. Pretty far away from bus stations if you want to walk it will be 22mins to get to the nearest bus station. I enjoyed my stay."
