    The room was nice, clean and spacious. The Inn had good parking. The room had a microwave and a fridge which was great. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast selection was also good, from juices to waffles. The location of the Inn was also pretty ideal seeing as there were many other restaurants close by.
