Convenient location
Staff at check in was very friendly. There was a long hair on the sink. (Definitely not mine) The bed was ok for one night but I woke up with back pain after the second night.

Motor Inn rooms are pretty basic
Motor Inn portion, while renovated still has very small bathroom, window AC unit and not much lighting. It was fine for a one night stay near family

Once settled, quite comfortable!
When I pulled in and tried to park it was full and too tight to turn around. Backing out of the parking are felt scary and dangerous. It here was loads of other parking, but there should be a sign saying No Exit. Friendly checkin though. And once in our room We have been quite comfortable. Pleasantly quiet!

Wonderful Experience
Beautiful hotel in a good location. So lovely to sit on the veranda drinking coffee and chatting.
Lovely room although not many sockets in room.
Disappointed that a small breakfast wasnt available.

Charming Victorian Inn
It is a restored old inn and just lovely. Views are great. Our room was on third floor with no elevator but even though I use a cane, it was do-able. There is a very nice wraparound porch to sit on with wicker chairs.

What a perfect get away location. We were greeted by John and Chef Dave. The room was comfortable and the memory foam beds were awesome. Linens and towels were 1st class.
Enjoyed mother's Day brunch, chef Dave is incredible will definitely be back

Not for us
The place itself is beautiful but unfortunately there was a wedding happening while we were there and it took up all the outdoor space so we were not able to enjoy it and had to pretty much stay in our room had nowhere to eat our dinner no table or chairs in our room.
