Some excerpts from the website of Old Town Inn that might be useful
All rates based on double occupancy. The Inn's largest
room is named after the light and airy purple and lavender colors throughout. It is popular with honeymooner's, guests celebrating an anniversary, or just as a romantic retreat. The
room features a king-size brass bed, antiques, a glass-front woodstove, and a private
bath with an extra large antique clawfoot
tub and a French-style
shower enclosure. A large
TV/VCR/DVD is in the
room to enjoy the owner's collection of Academy Award-winning
movies. Lots of light, sunsets,
garden views, and privacy. Guests in this
room gently awaken to a warm morning sun! It features red rose, plum, and ecru accents. The
room has antique quilts and cheery white antique
furniture. The walls are hung with Old City prints that may bring back memories! You are sure to enjoy this romantic
room, a private in-
room bath with
shower, plus a
TV/VCR/DVD for late-night romantic
movies. You may just stay another night! This
bedroom is decorated in cool misty green and Chardonney! It features family antique
furniture, heirloom quilts, and a collection of antique fruit crate labels from Central California where the innkeepers were raised. The firm queen-sized bed, a comfy reading chair, plus a
TV/VCR/DVD make this your home away from home. A private, detached
bathroom with
shower is one step outside the
bedroom door, and thick terrycloth
bathrobes are provided. The
room is a favorite with returning guests. This charming blue and white
room features country white antique furnishings, while artwork and fixtures pick up a nautical theme. A queen bed with a firm mattress, a cozy sitting area, and a
TV/VCR/DVD make guests feel at home. There is a private in-
room bath with a Victorian clawfoot
tub! Views of Humboldt Bay north toward Arcata can be seen from this
quiet room toward the back of the Inn. At the foot of the curved stairway, the guest parlor was originally the
room where guests were greeted. It is a warm and inviting
room with a marble fireplace, inviting
furniture, antiques, travel information, and books and magazines for leisurely reading. Soft music in the morning and evening provides a relaxing atmosphere. A
telephone is available for use by the guests. Located off the entry is the
dining room, a bright and cheery
room that was originally the owner's family parlor. The oak dining table expands to seat 10-12 on press-back chairs, and the
room glitters with china and silver.
Coffee and
tea is usually warming for the guests' enjoyment.
Breakfast is served between 7am-9am (for the guests' convenience) with light from oil lamps and the crackling fireplace. It may include fresh fruits, baked goods, and a hot entree. One of the house specialties is baked French Toast with fresh fruit glaze, or you may stay when the morning fare is baked apples with butter cinnamon sauce and
Breakfast Bread Pudding. Just plan not to have a big
lunch!
