There was plenty of space to sit and relax. We went for the in-room breakfast option, which was superb. The inn is in town, on a quiet side street, with lots of dining and shopping options within walking distance. ##### tricia Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Aug 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Fantastic stay.
