Breakfast was limited. Not enough coffee was made for the amt of ppl waiting. Staff were very friendly. The condition of the Inn is passable. The bed was very hard and blanket was thin. I was there an it became cold. There was not heating available for the room. The paint in my room and the bathroom especially was peeling. The water pressure was very poor. I understand it is an old structure, but I stay in older Inns etc almost as a rule. Others are in better condition and don't have peeling paint. Travelers need creature comfort and that can be done without luxury. Luxury was not expected. It could be a great spot with a little update.

This is a wonderful little place. The hosts are amazing, friendly and service is top notch! Jim at front desk is funny and knows the area well if you need suggestions. Centrally located we walked to everything. Its literally down road from pier and lots of restaurants. Room very clean, daily linen/towel change upon request (just leave the sign on door handle). This is an older establishment with history but is beautifully maintained and loved. Definitely would stay again.
