Overnight last minute trip, very nice!

"I decided to book an overnight trip last minute in Saint Joseph, I really enjoy walking around the town and going down to the lakeshore, so I figured I would try actually staying overnight there for once. I decided to try the Inn, and I was very pleased with the friendly check in and the great condition of the room. The room was very spacious and well maintained. It was nice getting to chill in the hot tub for a little bit, though the pool is just a tad smaller than I initially thought, but that's really not a big deal at all. It's a pretty easy 15 minute walk to the downtown area and the beach, which is a plus. All in all I was pleased with the stay and would definitely recommend the place for sure. "
