Pros:

It's a small and very cozy Inn, with a nice area both innside and outside. Good service, good food and good vibes. Beds and the rooms are okey and clean. We had everything we needed.

Cons:

The Inn could need a little toutch-up of the outdoor furniture.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Avoid this place. It's noise as they have a bar underneath, entrance It's through the bar. They only have 3 parking spaces, it says limited but it's only 3.
Bedrooms are very compact and hot. Showers don't work properly. I booked 3 Bedrooms as it was a family stay and they all were equally bad.

Sleepless
Pros:

The room was a decent size

Cons:

We're in the midst of a heat wave, I can accept that there was no air-conditioning, but no fan! So with open windows we shared second hand smoke and were kept awake by loud conversations from the outside bar seating b beneath our window. The temperature in our room got down to about 29 degrees but by 05:00 the sun was streaming in so it got warmer
There were 5 double plugs in the room, none even close to the bed. The TV is fastened to the wall in front of the mirror
