We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was friendly and attentive. The room was very nice. I felt very safe...the safest for our whole vacation. It was within walking distance of downtown and we did do this for shopping and dinner. We were leaving early the next day and the staff asked if we would like to-go bags for breakfast. We really love that.

This property features several very old homes which have been maintained in excellent condition. The room we had was clean and spacious, and it had all the necessary items like shampoo, soaps, and so forth. The owner greeted us in person was very pleasant and enjoyable to talk with breakfast was in a lovely room and food was excellent. We would definitely go back again. The on-site parking lot was very much appreciated.
