Such a cute and historic inn located in downtown Washington. Check in was a breeze, and my room was filled with plenty of light and featured a view of some of the shops in town. Continental breakfast was included, and provided several fresh fruit options which I love. Definitely a must see!
This inn was just what we wanted! It was a clean, quiet, comfortable, and unique place to stay at a very reasonable price. The room was nice and tidy. The bed was firm and comfortable, although I don’t think the sheets were cotton (which is always my preference) and the fitted sheet kept slipping off the mattress. The building is old, but beautifully updated with lots of charming character. There were lots of quirky little staircases on the way to our room, so be sure to let them know if you have mobility issues. I’m sure they would place you in a room closest to the elevator. There is a bar and coffee shop onsite. So that was very convenient. And we thoroughly enjoyed the cute shops around the downtown square on which the property is located. The included breakfast was simple but adequate. The staff that we met in the bar were very friendly and helpful. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely come back again.
The Room was very clean, staff was fine, no bar, breakfast was not much but enough to get me on the road early the next morning.
Only real complaint was the traffic late at night on Main St.

Beautiful room awesome view very attentive staff would recommend
The hotel is a delightful old building, with high ceilings and lovely woodwork. And while old, it is clearly well-maintained.
The bed was quite comfortable, with sufficient pillows and the bonus of an extra blanket.
All in all, a very nice place to stay.
Wonderful place in perfect downtown location. The only thing I would change is that the rooms have a very small tv- especially since the rooms are so large.
We enjoyed our stay. The historic charm of the property was wonderful. The room and bath were spacious and very clean. Our daughter loved the hotel and will recommend it to visiting friends and family. This will be our hotel of choice when we come to Washington.
Breakfast consists of Little Debbie donuts, cupcakes, bananas, oranges. Very limited. Self check in. No staff . It is an historic building. We love staying here despite the breakfast shortcomings. Location excellent. Many shops within walking distance , a brewery , coffee shop on main floor of building and bar in French basement.
Quaint inn on town square. Spacious clean and modern rooms. Self checkin (only 7 guest rooms) which was a refreshing reminder of the beauty of small town hospitality.
