Charming but lacking service and a view!

Although it is near the river, you cannot see the river from the hotel. It was supposed to be a river view sweet. There was nobody to be found in the morning at breakfast. I brewed the coffee for the other guests. Walls are a bit thin so you hear everything. Overall, the hotel is nice and very clean, but I will not stay here again.

It was perfect. I love old nostalgic buildings with creaking wood floors and those old timey bathtubs.

Hotel in an historic building.

Very nice hotel, but music from the pub could be heard in the rooms. Thankfully it ended around 11:00.

Quaint and Quirky Inn on the River!

This was such a quaint Inn on the River! The owners are completely awesome and extremely accommodating. This was such a great building and the owners are really making a huge effort at providing a wonderful experience for their customers!
