Old Town Inn enjoys a location conveniently close to Old Town and its tram stop. Guests appreciate the clean rooms and some found the beds to be super comfortable. Many also liked the cute pool area; however, some guests have noted noise from nearby trains. A highlight for many is the well-maintained breakfast room, which offers options like steel-cut oatmeal and uses paper bowls and plates.

mixed feelings about this inn

musty smell inadequate parking
the staff was friendly and the free breakfast was convenient.
the room had an old, musty smell, and i reminded me of it needs remodeling. the parking spaces were also inadequate. i think they need more parking spaces (it felt cramped).
