Any Specific problems? (Innkeeper notes)
1. Front room had some highway noise, would have like fluffier bath towels (Thanks for letting us know! Since then, we've bought new towels, and more importantly we've made adjustments to the detergent and water softner )
2. No. Some WD40 is needed on bedroom door. Also, in some B&B's guests are allowed a few ice cubes from the freezer for cold drinks (Thanks for letting us know! Somehow I thought that the squeaks and creeks were a part of the charm, I guess not. Since then Greg has WD40'd the entire house. So sorry you didn't inquire about ice. Ice is always available upon request, since then we've put out a note on the guest tea cart offering this )
3. No.
4. None whatsoever.
