I came to the area to purchase a collector car. I forgot to right up a bill of sale. I hand wrote one using property paper. When I finished Christina offered to type it out for me and print a copy. Who volunteers to do that?!

Charging for parking in season makes sense, but off-season seems to be unnecessary. Just add the price into the room charge.

really great place, location just down the road from old town BB. Friendly staff, nice breakfast. Our only complaint would be the parking lot lights. We weren't able to close the drapes and our third floor room was fairly bright all night long.
