Very Quaint & Comfy

The Inn on Ferry was super-convenient to the Reuther Archives, and it seems like a lovely safe neighborhood. The hotel itself is charming--four old buildings repurposed as a hotel. The central building, 84 East Ferry, offers a healthy breakfast every morning. The internet worked well. The room itself was large and very comfortable. Very quiet. And the staff are splendid and helpful. THREE CHEERS for the Inn on ferry.

Needed to go back and forth to the main, check-in, building to obtain extra body wash, ice, and get the linen service set right. Overall, it was a great experience and would come back. We ate our evening meals on the patio area in front of the carriage house. Very peaceful behind the buildings.
