Beautiful and quaint

Very impressed with this adorable boutique hotel smack dab in the middle of town, walking distance to the college, restaurants, shops, etc. very unique decor with an interesting history- and absolutely the best breakfast bagel sandwiches I have ever had, not usually a fan but the Asiago cheese bagel from a local bakery was AMAZING! Also love the rooftop bar area and the views from there

The hotel was in a fantastic location. All employees were incredibly helpful and friendly. My only complaint was that our room did not have a window. I did not feel comfortable in a room with no window. This should have been included in the description.
