We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bavarian Inn. The staff is very friendly, rooms and property are kept very clean, and we loved the cookies and milk in the lobby every afternoon. The restaurant served good food and coffee, and service was fast. We would definitely stay there again in the future.
