A fun, quirky hotel. The rooms were large and the bed was comfortable. I did have to ask for new sheets, as the first one had pilling. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely go back.

Hotel was nice and clean and comfortable. It was quite an old hotel with minimal upgrades. There were stairs and ramps to the room. Our room had no views but there were other rooms overlooking the waterway. Nice continental breakfast. Check-in and checkout were efficient and service at the breakfast was great.

It’s an older Inn and we had to walk quite a distance and climb steps to get to our room. If you are handicapped, this is difficult. Ask for a room on the ground floor. Luckily, an employee noticed our plight trying to get our luggage to the room and helped us out.
