Walnut Street Inn
We stayed at this property for one night. It's a very pleasant experience. It's 5 minutes walk to the destination we need to get to. It's cozy and clean. The breakfast is home made, warm and delicous. The shower water stream is not as strong as I like but it's not a big deal. Will return when I visit ...
