We were originally booked into the Melville which is part of a group of Inns on Clarke St. We moved to a larger room in the Farragut House. The room was large and comfortable, Rick the owner was attentive and pointed us to some awesome places to dine that were all in walking distance. Continental Breakfast was included and good if a light breakfast is your thing. A larger breakfast is available for a small fee. Overall, a lovely visit, especially if, like me, you are a history buff. I would book here again.
