“There's a real sense of stepping back in time here, with uniquely decorated rooms and a nostalgic atmosphere that extends to the communal breakfast setup. The location is spot-on for exploring historic Gettysburg, and the inclusion of free parking downtown is a definite advantage. Add in discounted ice cream next door, and you've got a stay that balances charm and convenience quite nicely.”
