"So many fun, quaint, wonderful features - the entry via the 'secret' courtyard, the wood stove, the loft bed, and especially the 'stairstep' bathroom built inside the massive old original fireplace."

I appreciate that certain rooms include kitchenettes and private entrances. For a central stay with a hint of local charm, it's a solid choice.”
