My wife and I had a fantastic time in Nauvoo and the stay at the Inn was exceptional! It was right in the heart of where we wanted to be and the historic nature of house was just a wonderful way to immerse ourselves in the history of the city. The staff was great and the room was just outstanding! The little touches like having little chocolates out in many plates around the house was just a nice little bonus. Would definitely recommend to anyone else and if we make it back to Nauvoo I know where I am going to stay!
