Nancy is the only one we met and she is the best. She was so friendly, kind and accommodating. She was happy and a joy to meet and talk to. The room was very clean. The parlor is beautiful. The rooms and entire place is warm. The food was delicious. The amenities of tea, coffee and cookies were perfect. Can’t ask for a better place. Great location and easy free parking as well. We had a great time with a stay. PS. My only wish was a curtain or shower door,
