Room was clean, but toilet chain kept coming off and water leaked out from shower. Breakfast was good. It would have been nice if they had hot water and coffee earlier than 8 am. The inn was in an awesome location and the downstairs sitting room was nice.

Shower is a safety hazard. Requieres you to clear a 2x2ft edge of the bathtub. No eails, no step through anything. How it passes safety inspections is beyond me. Also most be the smallest queen size bed ever made
