Cute town, easy access to downtown. Friendly staff.
Pros:

Located within walking distance of town. Beautiful grounds, on the river. The rooms were clean. Staff was all very pleasant, and accommodating. Also, they provided shuttle from train depot.

Cons:

Room and Bathroom was small. Beds and pullow were not very comfortable, but not so uncomfortable that I couldn't sleep. Think the room we had was a good value for the cost. I would do a little more research before booking the room I did.
