I had a lovely experience at Swantown Inn, which had a charming atmosphere and very comfortable rooms. Nathan and Casey were welcoming hosts, and breakfast was a true highlight with delicious homemade dishes. However, arriving late was stressful due to a lack of clear communication about check-in procedures, which made the initial experience a bit rocky. Overall, it was a delightful stay, but the check-in could be managed better.

Swantown Inn is a charming bed and breakfast with a delightful old-world appeal. My room featured a huge, comfortable bed and its own bathroom, creating a cozy atmosphere. Nathan and Casey, the hosts, were pleasant, and the breakfast was a highlight with amazing French toast and scrumptious scones. However, I had a rough start due to some communication issues upon arrival which could have been handled better.

Overall, the Swantown Inn & Spa is a charming spot with lovely owners, exceptional breakfast, and a cozy atmosphere. While the rooms were comfortable and the location was quiet yet convenient, arriving late might lead to misunderstandings with the owners, which could dampen your experience. Nevertheless, the beautiful view of the Capitol dome is a definite highlight.
