"The hotel is so lovely, I really enjoy smaller hotels with personality and vintage style, fabric headboards, crown molding, beautiful tile. It is under a bit of construction and our room overlooked the scaffold and parking lot which was a bummer. The staff is very accommodating and thoughtful - they agreed to switch our rooms, and sent me a bottle of wine and chocolates for my birthday! I loved being able to walk out o to the Main Street for shopping and dining. I will stay in this hotel again. "
