Innkeeper Response
Per this guest suggestion, we have removed the second chair from this smaller room(2 for a couple typically). We completely understand that when a couple is on a long trip that extra luggage requires more space. We try to look at each room from the guest's point of view when the room is set up, "Where would we set our personal items, etc." Our #1 concern is the comfort of our guests! We look forward to serving many more!
