An historic courthouse, converted to an inn. Some rooms are quite spatious-some are very small. Antiques everywhere. Cafè is a great place to start your day! Beds are comfortable. Ours was a twin

The hotel is funky in a good way. Its an old building and things are not perfect but it was clean and the beds super comfortable. Very friendly manager . Breakfast at the restaurant diwnstairs was delicious. If you like everything modern and perfect this won't suit you but if you prefer character wh we re you stay I recommend it.
