The property is a historic building but needs to be upgraded to meet 2025 standards. It feels shabby. For example, there are barely enough plugs in the bedroom and few are 3-pronged. For the price being charged, kleenex and toilet paper should be soft. We were told the power would be off in the morning and there would be a cold breakfast downstairs. The power did not seem to go off and the breakfast was abysmal. Lots of bread in the fridge but nothing to put on the bread - i.e. no butter, peanut butter or cheese. Coffee could have been brewed and left in a thermos. Nada. We had to hunt for plates and there were no napkins anywhere. In a word - inhospitable.

I liked the waitress in the restaurant. Workwd her butt off but remained friendly amd cheery. I didnt like others, probably owners or staff, coming in after us, going straight to a window with a view (we had a wall) and being serrved and eating before we even got to order. I liked the brewery across the street.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I recently had the opportunity to stay at The Courthouse Inn. I was excited for the unique history and decor. But, unfortunately, my experience was less than satisfactory. When I arrived, I encountered issues, starting with the lack of staff available to assist with check-in. I also felt that the security measures were inadequate as doors to the private rooms were unlocked, opened, and no staff was immediately present. We were also told there would be a complimentary “early risers” breakfast on the first floor. However, when we checked, we found the fridge and cupboards completely empty. When we walked to the hotel’s café, we were informed that they had “run out of food” the previous day. The promise of complimentary “breakfast treats” was a key factor in my decision to choose this hotel, so this was particularly disappointing. Overall, I was left feeling dissatisfied with my stay and would be hesitant to recommend this inn based on my experience.

It was very noisy with some hotel workers moving things and doing some kind of extended project past 1030. It was difficult to sleep. There is a player piano that was right outside my room and that went off three times up to 1000, again very annoying. No house cleaning and no indication the rooms would not be cleaned
