Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I feel that the property should fully disclose that they are really a motel without a restaurant during off season. There is an Inn, which is being renovated and a restaurant that is closed from Sept to July… so I really feel, that they incorrectly advertise themselves on expedia. This bothers me… It is in a good location, the staff are friendly and helpful and lots of parking when you’re the only guests. I was really disappointed that we did not get to stay in the historic Inn but out back in the small motor inn… I was shocked. It spoiled my holiday…We recovered but please advise others… If you book on Expedia, you end up in a motor motel and not a lovely historic Inn with some Alexander Graham Bell and 1800’s history… I am still sad, my apologies but I must caution others…
