    Pleasant Surprise

    July 10, 2012

    We stayed in the Town's Inn for 4 nights in the first week in July. The buildings looked wonderful and the room was better than we expected. The weather was very hot and the window unit did a great job. A bit difficult to sleep considering the thin walls and the nearby train station, but it was a wonderful spot for visiting the town of Harper's Ferry. Karan is such a nice woman and we felt very welcome. We only ate breakfast at the Inn's restaurant which was great the first day but not entirely great the second day. It's a nice little spot with spectacular views!

    An Inn that resonates with the look and feel of Harper's Ferry

    June 24, 2012

    This was the second time we stayed at Town's Inn. The staff and innkeeper are tremendous and made us feel like this was our home for the night. They offer great rooms, great food, and great service at an affordable price. We will be back! Also don't forget to check out the variety of hiker/biker food and supplies - from healthy snacks to power bars and all purpose soaps and other handy items you may need on the trail. Stop in at the second floor office and check it out.

    Very enjoyable stay

    August 16, 2011

    My two adult daughters and I stayed in the Friendship Room for two nights. The room was very comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay very much. Loved the location right in town, within easy walking of restaurants and Harpers Ferry attractions. We would definitely stay here again.

    we'll be back

    August 18, 2010

    This was our second time in Harpers Ferry and our first time in an inn. Staying in the heart of history in an inn like this made all the difference in our experiencing Harpers Ferry to the fullest; something staying in a nearby motel just can't capture. The people were friendly, the food was good (but a little pricey), and Karen was a wonderful host. the only negative was the train whistles in the middle of the night. But we took care of that with earplugs the next night!

    Nice, But Wouldn't Stay Again

    June 25, 2010

    Some noice from AC/trains and restaurant below. Expected coffee machine in room. Only 1 pillow each provided, needed more. The room was a nice size, but hard to get around bed without bumping leg. Also, there was a step going to bathroom they need to tell you about. Nice area, nice location for a B&B.
