Hotel was lovely and the Staff was friendly. Great location, wonderful complimentary breakfast, comfortable beds, wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
The only issue I encountered was that I couldn't connect my laptop to wifi. I tried, they tried, no dice. Haven't encountered that problem before or since I left. It's a mystery.
A charming older property just off of Old Town. Easy walkability to good food and artsy shops. In-house dining was a prix fixe affair, which may or may not be your thing, but there's plenty of other options nearby. Street parking was plentiful and the place is just a block off the 101 so very easy to find. I recommend it, especially if you are tired of staying at bland chain hotels.
Loved this place!!! Nice staff, beautiful property- the grounds were lovely and the room was beautiful! Breakfast was delicious- served to our room and awesome! The happy hour was also great / the best cookies ever:-)!!
The Inn is the epitome of charming. The staff are attentive and really go out of their way to assist and please. The breakfast is excellent and the special price-fixed dinner was outstanding!
We haven’t been here in 15 years and we had fun memories. It did not disappoint so a wonderful, cozy service, friendly, beautiful architectural old homes.
Booked this place due to its unique Victorian character. Neighborhood very sketchy… near courthouse and jail. Advertised free breakfast, when entered dining area buffet of only gluten full selection, nothing was gluten free. Breakfast menu offered egg dishes for $25. We checked out and went in search of a diner.
Also, our room didn’t have a phone! Do they assume everyone has a cell phone? I think this is a safety issue, especially in case of an emergency.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The hotel provides a lot of extras that make the stay much better than average. The historic hotel building has lots of character and class! We highly recommend, and would stay here again.
The hotel was beautiful and the room was comfortable with many amenities. Staff was also super friendly and helpful. The neighborhood surrounding isnt lovely but it is walking distance to Old Town which is cool.
I really loved this place - the check in and check out folks were SO welcoming and accommodating, I will definitely stay here next time. The bed was comfy, the room was VERY quiet even though on the first floor near the restaurant/bar and parking lot. I didn't get to use the bathtub but 100% want to come back just to use the bath salts and fanciness and eat in the restaurant.

Very nice place. Old but well kept. Interesting building. Staff were extremely friendly helpful and professional. The dinner we had was one of the top 5 meals I’ve ever eaten. Very warm friendly place to stay with lots of character
This property was in an excellent historic building that is well-maintained. All of the staff were very friendly. Check-in was very smooth and welcoming. The room was very nice and had many unexpected amenities. Please note - this is an older building, so walls are a bit thin, but that didn’t bother us.
Unique rooms and facility. The walk to the restaurant area was good and we were lucky that the Friday market was happening. Lots of community activities, local artists and street food and beer vendors. A really memorable stay and a highlight of a great two week road trip down the coast from Seattle to San Francisco.
