While there, we had a regional, power blackout. Staff was wonderful. Bar was open, so we hung out there. We had dinner in an adjacent city. When we returned, all was OK. We also loved the conversations we overheard which focused on the college. Not why we were there, but it added interest.

Really nice inn in a great location relative to town and the university. The staff is wonderful, the beds are very comfortable and the hotel has so much charm. The restaurant is very good, wished it stayed open later, and served breakfast, but otherwise it was a great experience.
