Unfortunately the TV was not working. It was a building problem, so I was told. Kitchen wasn’t open at 8 am. Had to leave. No breakfast service. Otherwise I love the charm and comfort of the place.

Charming, clean and comfortable
Charming hotel close to the airport and downtown. We were greeted with a glass of local wine while we waited for our Check-in. Mack at the front was wonderful! The room was clean and comfortable and close to their little outdoor patio which we enjoyed. Left too early to have the breakfast so I can't review on that.

I enjoyed the included breakfast option with the Bridgerton music vibe. We were woke up very earlier by people cleaning the area. You can hear every noise at the street.

Not wanting to be in our room constantly, we ventured outside a lot. The outside of the building is in serious need of maintenance and repair. Do not go down the stairs from the upstairs back deck. My husband grabbed the railing and it crumbled in his hands. There are cobwebs all over the place. We have more issues with the inn that have not been resolved yet with the management.
