The bed was comfortable. The sower small. The floor was dirty. It looks like they are doing some renovations and they are needed

Overall the place is cute. The bed was actually very comfortable. There was no regular coffee out when we went down to get some and the pastries were the same from the night before. The bathroom does not have a door which I was not a fan of but we managed. The bathroom also needs hand towels and washclothes. I would stay again but hope they will put out fresh regular coffee for the morning. You have to text the inn as the front desk is not regualry manned and they never answered with several requests for a slightly later checkout. Even a no would have been better than no answer. Oh well. Id still stay again because the location is ideal and the bed was clean and comfy.

Think of a boarding house with paper thin walls right on the main thoroughfare of the town. Guests up early into the morning talking right outside our door. Then beginning at 2:30 a.m. two people from the creamery (I guess) in the kitchen talking up a storm. Finally at 3:30 I had to get out of bed and ask them to be quiet. Next comes the trash truck at 4 a m. with it's back up beeper going off and clanging trash cans. You can here every footstep on the creaking floors and every toilet that flushes. ZERO sleep

Bed and pillows were the worst. Both way too soft with no support. Cheap bedframe with no headboard so pillows kept slipping down the between the wall. Only one chair in the room. Shower very small and uncomfortable. Everything was clean and room was recently remodeled, they just need to focus more on comfort. We left a day early due to the bed.

The rooms are very bare bones, which is fine at this price point. The office was very good about sending login information and the check Inwas easy. The room was really hot and turning down the heat didn’t matter. We ended up leaving the windows open in Mid March. The hotel is on the main road and the traffic was really loud. I didn’t think there would be so much traffic but there was was. Finally, when one of the other room flushed their toilet, ours would gurgle really loudly.
