Cute Inn. Convenient location. Room was clean except shower tiles need a good scrubbing. Also, there was no cover, flat sheet or duvet on the bed comforters which seems unusual.

Hi. The front desk was very friendly. We stayed on two different nights within a week. First night there was a lot of hair in our bathroom/floor and shower. I told the front desk attendant. They said they asked housekeeping to come clean. I ended up cleaning it. Second stay there was hair on the toilet.
