My husband and I have never stayed in a B&B before. We had a wonderful experience with the Old Library Inn. Our room was decorated beautifully, and very clean. The bathroom was especially immaculate and the linens were soft, fresh and plentiful. Breakfast was fresh made to order and delicious. I felt very relaxed and comfortable in the living room area and kitchen. A wonderful stay and I will be back!

It was a cool historical building that was very nice inside. We had the down stairs room it was spacious but the carpet did smell a little old and musty. I would stay there again in a differ room with no carpet in it.

Check-in was easy, the house was clean and quiet. It was a nice, antique looking house. However, nowhere did I see posted that breakfast was only served on the weekends, so we were expecting that. It was kind of pricey to not have breakfast included. There were some holes and stains on the comforter and the smoke detector chirped the whole time we were there.

We were ready to give it a less than positive review, the room we were assigned had a bathroom out a door and into a stairway, not accessible from the bedroom, not a good situation. I called the hostess and voiced my objections and about 45 minutes later received a text moving us to a different room. The bedroom they moved us to had an onsuite bathroom so we were very happy with the final outcome. Very responsive. Would definitely stay at the Inn if ever in the area.
