Recognizing it’s an older property and while it’s very unique and appealing, there were some quirks: Very tiny bathroom, not that great king mattress (felt a little soft and uneven), seating in room only ok. The positives: Walk-ability, seating and use of inn outside of room, nice breakfast with adequate seating for the time we visited, parking plentiful and safe for time we visited.
