Suites & Amenities

What amenities are included in each suite?

All suites include high-speed WiFi, Roku smart TV, central heating/air conditioning, private entrance, private bathroom, fresh linens/towels, filtered drinking water, and an electric fireplace.

Do the suites have kitchens?

The Tower Suite and Union Cottage Studio feature fully equipped kitchens (stove, oven, refrigerator, cookware, dinnerware, drip coffee maker). The Loft Suite and Union Cottage Bungalow include efficiency kitchenettes (refrigerator, microwave, toaster, sink, drip coffee maker).

Is breakfast provided?

We are a self-catering private suite lodging rather than a traditional B&B. Complimentary coffee and filtered water are provided, and local cafes and bakeries are just a short walk away downtown.

Are the suites wheelchair accessible?

Due to the historic architecture of the 1878 jailhouse and vintage cottage properties (including exterior and interior staircases), our suites are unfortunately not ADA handicap accessible.

Do you allow pets?

Sorry, pets are not permitted in the suites.

Are the bedrooms separate in the tower?

The Tower is a full studio apartment with two queen beds and a roll-away twin, meaning the sleeping area is part of the main studio space.

Which suites have stairs?

Both the Tower and the Loft suites are located on the second floor and are reached via staircase. The Union Cottage studio and Bungalow suites are located on the ground floor and have several small steps at the entrance doors.
