"Very clean friendly helpful staff"

The Inn was a wonderful surprise. We would have stayed longer but only needed the one night. Parking was great. There is no elevator and my husband is handicapped so they accommodated us by moving us to the bottom floor. We booked our reservation through a booking site and were told there was an elevator. But the Garden City Inn worked hard to make sure his needs were met. It's a very low key, laid back environment, not flashy or loud; exactly what we needed.
