Avoid the downstairs room.
Well it started out OK. The wall-to-wall carpeting in my room was very dirty. Thn an area rug is placed on top which is a tripping hazard. The worst is that I had a downstairs room and the people above me above at 5 am and I was awoken by loud footsteps on top of my head.

This property has really gone downhill, especially since the closing of the restaurant. What it really needs is someTLC by someone who cares because the property has tremendous potential to be a beautiful property if just shown a little bit of care with some small adjustments and upgrades.

We loved our stay at the Independence Inn. It was clean and welcoming. The self check in was easy and the innkeeper was wonderful! They went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs.

There was no host during entire stay. The host was a (g)host. You enter an empty house. Kitchenette in common area was filled with the same dirty, moldy dishes the entire stay. The bathroom smelled like septic tank. Bathroom door did not latch. Felt like a ghost town of year's past.

Our room was filthy - mattress needed to be replaced. The continental breakfast was hidden in cupboards. We were required to scrounge for it.

I awoke to tidy things up prior to checking out only to realize how dirty the rug and worse, my bed sheets and banket and even found bugs. Before I left I sent a text to the Innkeeper and waited 20 minutes but never got a response. I dont like to leave negative reviews and the place presents itself better perhaps until you really look.

weird in a nice way
It was a low-frills room but clean, comfortable, and dark enough. Tap water was not delicious, water pressure strange. It was cool staying in a really old inn! I liked the ambiance and had a good night of sleep.

I would rate this property, generally speaking, as average because some things could have been a little cleaner (ex. The bedroom rug needs to be cleaned.) I was a little disappointed when the in room coffee maker didn’t work.
