Victorian Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Super helpful and welcoming staff. We requested two cribs for our toddlers and were accommodated. There was cider in the room to welcome us on arrival with a lovely handwritten note. Plenty of towels, soap, and wash cloths. The location is unbeatable; we walked everywhere and didn’t have to find a parking spot after arriving. The free breakfast was generous and filling. I wish we’d been able to try the wine and cheese hour but it coincided with dinner time for the little ones at 5. We 100% will recommend and return."
