They were very accommodating, the room was nice albeit a bit chilly. They also helped with the parking which was a nice touch. The breakfast was very tasty. Only minus was the Wi-Fi which was a bit spotty however I would guess it was because we were on the second floor

The owners couldn't have been nicer and the food was excellent and everything had been made modern in a very old building. It was a quaint old Inn and full of personality.
