Room was nice and staff were very nice. However our hairdryer broke and lit up and smoked. Bathroom did not have an exhaust fan so it got very foggy. Shower drain seemed blocked. Also housekeeping tried to open our door, without knocking, when the do not disturb sign was on the door handle.

The Inn and it's staff were very nice. The only issue is that it was being used as a filming location for a TV show. This radically reduced parking. Perhaps related was a seeming shortage of front of house and perhaps back of house staff in the restaurant.

We enjoyed our stay, especially the amazing staff. However we had no vehicle and had to cab or uber since no busses run nearby. Because if the location if the inn, there is not much room to walk safely on the side of a very busy highway.
