Great unique b and b type of place. Self check in was great. Great views, nice staff. Just wish check in wasn’t so late (5pm) and check out so early (10am), but they did let me in early and said I could hang out after 10am so that worked out, in the end… Great vibe.

The room is small but can accommodate a family of four or five. Room is clean and has many hooks and shelves and storage areas. Big common dining area has great views, big kitchen for cooking if you want to. Owner Sarah let me waiting for my family in the common area after checking out, which I really appreciate. Also, the made on demand breakfast is great too.

The breakfast options were great. Friendly staff. Homemade breads fabulous. When they say the loft is small and meant for kids, believe them. But it worked out for my family even though my kids are grown. The sleeping loft created a family memory. =)
