My fiancé and I stayed at the Albemarle Inn and loved our time there. The woman at the front desk was kind and helpful with getting us settled. Our room was large and very comfortable. The bathroom was nicely updated and the private balcony was gorgeous and a great place to have a morning coffee. We can't wait to stay here again!
