Cute inn with a wonderful breakfast. Best cheese grits I’ve had. Loved having cold water, ice, coffee and snacks all day. Well maintained for being built in the 1790’s. Short walk to kings street and the city market. Staying here made the trip even more historic and special.

Its such a cute inn. Great complimentary breakfast. Staff friendly & helpful. We stayed in the back couch house, big room, great bed. The only slight negative was the bathrooms a bit old, cracked tiles so looks unsightly but it was clean so not a bad enough reason to not stay. Very good location close to King Street.
