She's a little long in the tooth with her wood paneled walls and all, but it adds to the charm of a well run hotel with the comfort of her guests a top priority.

Best Breakfast ever!
Wonderful hospitality and the best breakfast ever! homemade doughnuts and mini rhubarb loaves at checkout! And in spite of being in a busy area, the rooms were quiet. Bathrooms were updated and very nice. We liked the rich history displayed on the walls and log cabin feel.
