Close to event I was attending. Poorly maintained. Repairs not performed. Noisy clientele, single payne windows, bath flooring linoleum had a hole with lino peeled up right in the walkway. Tub spigot leaked continously, toilet flush valve always stuck , so I felt it necessary to open toilet tank and unstick the valve so it would stop running. Thin walls. One can hear everything going on outside If you just need a bed to sleep, and don't care about the rest then ok.

there was no air condition in the room. In the evening the sun came in through the window and the room got hot. The stairs to the room were not working so we had to walk around to get to our room. The price I paid was not worth the room we got. Sorry. Armida Soares

Not well cared for
The inn has a lot of potential, but the price is way too high for the condition it is in. The room smelled like fried food, the bathroom was not very clean and had tears in the floor, and the carpet had rips in it. The inn still has a lot of it's original charm, but it's obvious that no one has cared for it.
