Most of the staff was friendly and quite nice. The breakfast was excellent, The main issue was the excessive heat on the third floor. We found out the next day that there was a fan in the closet. A simple note alerting us to that fact would have been helpful Also, I found their charge to move up check in most irritating

great little place walking distance to old town

This is an old converted victorian. The staff is great. The bathrooms are newly renovated. The place is spotlessly clean. There are a couple of common rooms with fireplaces, perfect for that chilly March weather to sit, drink coffee, and read a good book. The decor is on the eclectic, funky side but we liked that. And location, location, location. It's a 5 minute walk to old town. Would definitely stay here again.
