Comfortable rooms in a great resort town

Great lodging above the historic tavern. Rooms very nicely decorated and very comfortable. Our surprisingly large comfortable room had a king and historic charm of the clawfoot tub, a throwback to earlier times. Room had plenty of seating. No tv. Good wifi.
