I would definitley come back again! Everything was so unique in this place and the size of my room was much bigger than anticipated. The staff was super friendly and the room was fairly clean; the rug under the bed could have used a vacuum, but that was minor compared to everything else. Wonderful experience all 'round!

It’s a beautiful place with entrances on two streets for shopping and dining (because it’s built on a bluff). Get the river view. The sight of enormous cargo ships and steamboats is mesmerizing. And the bed was comfy! I must say the house staff were just the best I’ve ever experienced. They answered our confused questions with grace and humor and made us feel special. Requests were immediately tended to — our TV went on the blink and they swapped it out at once with a new one from the penthouse! It’s a special place — quite pricey but worth it.

This was a very unique Inn with lots of history along with modern touches. The river view rooms were amazing. There is a lot of action on River Street but as long as you’re not expecting complete silence, it’s all part of the charm of the old town.
