    “Loved my stay. I will look for the opportunity to stay here again if I'm passing through the area. Excellent value for the price. Very neat restaurant and bar - the scene was more lively than I expected, but the rooms are still quiet. Gives you nostalgic and quaint college town vibes! No complaints."

    “I've stayed at the inn four times now, and each stay has been quite pleasant. The rooms have been very clean, exceptionally quiet and comfortable. There is ample free parking. The inn is situated just a few blocks from the Ohio University campus. The meals I've had at the inn's Cutler's dining room and tavern have been excellent, as had been the service.”
