There was hair from a previous guest on our bathroom towels and a used shower cap in the bathtub. The mattress would sink at the head and was very uncomfortable.

Disliked: Amenities
Nice place but pics can be misleading. The place is not as updated or renovated as the pictures look. I’m being biased here because I’m really picky when it comes to rooms and I know this is an Inn and not a hotel, but for the price, I felt like we were expecting a newer and updated room. Everything inside the room was old, worn out, and somewhat ugly. It felt like a motel 6 inside. Our sink barely spit out any water from it being so old. Overall nice place outside and great location but don’t think it’s with $250+ per night when I felt like our room was at a motel 6
