Excellent Inn!

Perfect place while visiting our son in the area. You can easily walk or take public transportation most places, including to/from the airport. My husband is Gluten Free and they even had a special GF muffin for him in the morning! Comfy beds, fabulous room, well appointed. Loved meeting others when getting breakfast. Great hosts!
