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.
