quaint gem

amazing serviceonsite parkingthin walls
i really appreciate the staff's amazing service. Breakfast provided a good start to the day before sightseeing. staff accommodated our requests for extra pillows and promptly fixed a minor issue with the bedside lamp. i appreciated the convenience of the on-site parking, given the area's limited parking options.
the walls seemed thin, as i could hear conversations from adjacent rooms at times. this did affect the tranquility, especially during peak hours.

Fantastic Stay in Quaint Inn

Daisy checked us in, she was attentive. All staff were amazing. Breakfast was plentiful. We chose to eat dinner the first night and the food was really good with generous portions. I would happily return for another stay, it was a fabulous weekend. The staff helped make it special.
The menu could be bigger, offering more choice for vegetarians and other options.

Underwhelming Stay

The room was clean.
The first breakfast was inedible, so was the evening meal. The staff used swear words loudly in the kitchen during breakfast and were loud. The staff openly criticized customers at the bar and it was unprofessional.
