The Lynwood inn is in a great location and the staff is extremely nice. The hotel wall was paper thin and being on the ground floor every single time anyone opened or closed the entrance door it resulted in a slam that was audibly felt and heard in our room. Additionally you could hear everyone walking up or down the stairs. Using earplugs did not help. The bed configuration almost needs to be switched so your head isn't against the slamming door. Or at a minimum they need to fix the door jam so it isn't slamming constantly. This is most likely only an issue for the 1 room we got but all 4 of us had an inconsistent sleep due to the noise. We left more tired than arriving.

Cute, older building. Very central, within walking distance of food etc. The building itself is older, could use some updating and repair. Overall a decent stay although the town is sparse and most places closed by 5pm other than restaurants.

No outside areas to sit. Restaurant staff very good but too few cooks and servers. Long waits for seating and longer waits for food. Long lines to get in and many guests turned away .

I am a senior with some difficulty with stairs (I am still able to manoeuvre) was given a room on the main floor but there were still stairs involved. I would say there is a growing number of seniors still travelling. Did not see in your website where stairs or no elevator was mentioned.

Great location, friendly service, bed too firm

The check in was friendly and efficient. The room was clean and quiet. The location was perfect. The bed was far too firm for me.
