Old Capital Bike Inn was amazing. Everyone was extremely helpful by suggesting restaurants, getting us reservations for massages, and even, keeping some bags for us until the end of our trip so we didn’t have to take them with us. The food was fabulous and the Inn is adorable. They made sure the construction outside did not bother us; which it didn’t. We took the night bike tour with Jason and had the best time! We loved it so much we stayed here twice! And would definitely stay again. Absolutely one of the best places we’ve ever stayed.
