While our inn and city are historic, our mindset is one always looking toward the future. If we aren’t upgrading we are downgrading. We are always looking to improve the guest experience, whether that means renovating our bathrooms, adding new technology, sourcing new furnishings and decor from of own travels, or refreshing the property with new touches and amenities. We want our return guests to arrive somewhere familiar and intimate, but to keep them curious for what we will do next.”
