The property is so authentic to the original structure, filled with antiques, it's like stepping back in time, only with better plumbing! Lynda was the perfect hostess. She anticipated that we would need a first floor room without my asking. The property was accessible to my parents who have mobility issues. We enjoyed our made to order breakfast, including gluten free toast. Not a lot of dining near the property that we could see, although there is a list of restaurants in the room.

Only complain is the AC unit. The control is shared by a few rooms so you may not have the control in your room. And the AC is also very noisy. The room is clean but it’s small.

I liked the price and location. The rooms were clean. However, the linens were something you might buy at Goodwill ( flower print) instead of regular white horel linens.

The communication with staff on my day of arrival went well; unfortunately, highway traffic delayed my arrival time but the innkeeper was pleasant and let me know how to access my room after-hours. The location of the inn is ideal for restaurants, a quaint downtown scene, and to nearby Augusta. I felt safe walking around the inn and the neighborhood in the early hours/late afternoon as a solo female traveler. The property has beautiful landscaping and the fellow guests were a delight to talk to at the morning breakfast. The dining room was well attended by staff. The setup of this inn is simple and doesn't require a hike to the parking lot, which is ideal if you have a lot of luggage. I'd recommend this inn to anyone staying in the area for a night or two. Bed was comfortable, room was clean, and the shower had great water pressure. Basic toiletries like shampoo/soap/makeup remover were provided.

Disappointing Experience — Discriminatory Toward Service Animals I was extremely disappointed with my recent interaction with this hotel. I informed the manager, John, a few hours before check in, that I was traveling with my service animal, who is legally permitted to accompany me anywhere, and I was shocked at being told that I could not bring her to the hotel. Despite explaining that this was a trained service animal, not a pet, John refused to accommodate me. He asked for proof of my dog's certification which showed a complete lack of understanding of the law. The ADA guidelines for service animals state that certification and licenses are not required and therefore are not needed to access a public place. John then went on to say, "We have a no pets allowed policy and if you bring your service dog then the other guests will assume that they can bring their pets as well." My dog is not a pet. She is a necessary "piece of equipment" to assist me in my daily activities. Hopefully John never tells a guest they can't bring their wheelchair, cane or oxygen tank into his hotel! Traveling is already stressful enough without having to fight for basic respect and legal rights. This experience left me feeling unwelcome and discriminated against. Not only was it inconvenient, since we had to find another hotel after being in the car for 10+ hours, but it was also deeply disrespectful and in clear violation of ADA regulations. Avoid if you need and rely on a service animal.
