Spring House Inn

Spring House Inn

8/10 Good
"Nice setting. The room was clean. The staff was helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was good with hot and cold options. The downsides which are not the fault of the Spring House Inn, was that the most direct route to the hotel was closed due to a bridge being rebuilt and there were train noises throughout the night which made it hard to sleep."

"We enjoyed 5 nights here. Everything listed was accurate. I really appreciate Jessica’s hospitality and quick response! This house was perfect for our needs and clean. Really loved having the large living room and sofa is very nice. The pots and pans looked brand new also. There are a couple pubs and a Mexican restaurant, also a convenient store in walking distance, but they do not bring in additional noise at night. Only made it easier to walk to get dinner one night ! Thanks Jessica!"
