Good enough 1 nighr stay.

Good enough 1 night stay, bed very comfy, plenty of hot water for a shower and room was clean and seemed recently refurbished. When entering the room there seemed to be a damp musty smell, but we were only there 1 night and we accepted.

The inn looks really dated but is good inside the

The room was fine. But my opinion soured at the check in because there was $15 per day charge for parking. I had looked for a parking info during booking but could not find it. It should be clearly spelled out during booking.
