The room had a nice gas fireplace and a jetted tub. Yes, the bathroom was clean, including the jetted tub. I wish there had been more hot water. The minifridge worked well. There was a loose metal banister going from the first to the second floor near our second-floor room. The king-sized bed was comfortable. The gentleman at the front desk was friendly. The continental breakfast was lackluster, but okay. I don’t think I’ll stay again, but others might appreciate its quaintness.
