"Charming Little Hotel in a Great Location! What a quaint and charming little hotel! We really enjoyed our stay. The room was cute and cozy, the restaurant had a wonderful atmosphere, and the staff were absolutely phenomenal! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The location was fantastic! We were able to walk to a local brewpub that had phenomenal food and beer. The hotel is also close to a beautiful little church that makes for a great photo opportunity. One thing to be aware of: if you have mobility challenges or difficulty carrying luggage, there are stairs to get up to the hotel, and you will need to carry your bags. This is definitely something to consider if you need an elevator or have heavy suitcases. Overall, we loved the charm, the wonderful staff, and the convenience of being able to walk around and explore the town. Such a cute little place with a great location! We would definitely stay here again!"
