We were unable to sleep due to uncontrollable loud guests! The staff attempted to intervene a few times but unfortunately it did not stop and there was no other solution offered. We were unable to fall asleep Until 4 am. This was my first stay. I loved everything else about the Inn! I was disappointed that I was not offered any sort of compensation!

The room was lovely, bright and cheery with lovely art on the walls. there was plenty of counter space, and we had ample room for 3 of us in our 2-queen room. The bathroom was very nice with a lovely walk-in shower. The elevator was broken while we were there, and taking the stairs to the second floor with luggage was not fun. I'm assuming this is temporary. We ate breakfast in the morning at the hotel's restaurant and the food was great.
