Georgetown Jewel
This is a jewel we found for a birthday trip for my wife. It was like stepping into a piece of history. The decor was amazing. There was a sitting room downstairs where the hosts provided a wine and cheese reception. Breakfast at the big table in the morning was amazing. The room was comfortable and perfect for us. The staff was extremely friendly.

1849 Elegance!
If you want to experience a Gold Rush Hotel, the American Inn is it! Authentic right down to the floorboards. The owner is super friendly and breakfast was world-class. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Needs some upkeep
The place can really use some maintenance and upkeep. Broken screens and torn curtains need immediate attention. The bathroom fan was horribly noisy.
